CKc Hosts Inaugural Ripple Effect Luncheon

To kick off Pediatric cancer Month this year, we were excited to host our inaugural Ripple Effect Luncheon. 

We were joined by over 200 individuals who took advantage of the opportunity to support a worthy cause, gain inspiration, and foster community connections. The event included philanthropy, personal growth, and community building. 

“The Ripple Effect Luncheon was more than just a rallying call for pediatric cancer awareness,” said Dana Nichols, executive director for Cannonball Kids’ cancer Foundation. “We hope everyone who attended the event left empowered to turn their passion into purpose and make a difference throughout our community.”

Thank you to our inspiring hosts, Rachel DeAlto and Rachel Sheerin, who gave us a renewed sense of purpose and passion.  

We also want to thank our sponsors and partners for making the event possible:

• Massey Services, Inc. 
• Orlando City | Orlando Pride
• Sundance Architectural Products
• ZRS Management 

Funds raised at the event will be directed to research grants for better treatment options for children. To learn more about CKc and our Pediatric cancer Awareness Month education campaign, visit researchisthekey.com.
