The evening kicks off with live entertainment & a high end fashion showcase Directed by Andres Chulisi Rodriguez. Guests will enjoy food & beverages from local chefs, restaurants, wineries, breweries & gourmet craftsman to create public awareness and understand DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Giloma). Funds raised will support medical facilitates and scientific trials whose primary focus is to find a cure for the disease.

Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) is a malignant tumor found in the brain stem, which is the part of the brain that controls many vital functions. DIPG affects children of both sexes equally and is typically diagnosed in patients ages 5-9 and accounts for 10-15% percent of all childhood central nervous system (CNS) tumors.

Hop on board and together we can help the 300 children diagnosed each year.
