BCA Mission Statement: Breast Cancer Action carries the voices of people affected by breast cancer to inspire and compel the changes necessary to end the breast cancer epidemic.
- A silent auction begins at 5:30pm and ends at 7:15pm. Please view the Silent Auction page for items and services you can bid on.
- At 7:30pm, we will be auctioning dates off with 12 smart, sexy, fun men and women (of various ages, sexual orientations and ethnic backgrounds), all for charity. The starting bid is $50, but of course, we expect each person to go for hundreds so bring your high roller friends! Please view the Photos page for photos and bios.
- The book, Knowing Pains will be available for $16.95. Net proceeds benefit BCA.
- Donated baked goods (yummy cookies, brownies, etc) will be available as part of the fundraiser (by donation starting at $1 each).
- Music by DJ Betsy-La
- MCs Ldog & Totos will keep you laughing as they encourage you to bid higher for the 12 hot dates
- Happy Hour is from 5-9pm. This is a cash only bar (ATM is located inside or could just bring lots of cash before you get there).
The winner of each date will select a gift certificate (the person who bids the most money for a date gets to pick first, second highest bid gets to pick second, etc.) for a romantic dinner for two at a wonderful local restaurant. Please view the Restaurant List page for more info.
Married or in a relationship? That's ok - come enjoy the show, bid on things for the silent auction and bring your single friends! Remember, just walking through the door with your donation helps BCA! When you donate the suggested donation, or more, you could win a gift certificate to Amici's East Coast Pizzeria.
