Hi Everyone,
We hope you are all enjoying the start of fall. If you’re in a climate similar to Chicago, we wish you an easy transition into cooler weather.
Here in Chicago, you may have noticed a pink glow to the city as we have begun Breast Cancer Awareness month! We are right in the middle of our Seventh Annual Chicago’s In Good Taste Campaign, which has brought together over 160 restaurant, hotel, spa, salon, and retail partners in Chicagoland! Our partners are committed to raising funds for The Lynn Sage Foundation by promoting special food, drink, or other specials throughout the month. To view a full list of our partners, please visit our campaign page and be sure to make your reservations through OpenTable if you’re in Chicago.
One of the best ways to get involved and support our mission to fund breast cancer researchers and eventually find a cure for breast cancer, no matter where you live, is to send one of our Cards for a Cure to a loved one. We have cards for all occasions on our website and your friends will love that the card is helping to support breast cancer research!
We are getting ready for CHILL: An International Culinary and Wine Event, which will take place at the Merchandise Mart on November 13. CHILL brings together some of the hottest chefs and wine distributors for a huge event in the LuxeHome showroom. Tickets may be purchased by clicking here. At CHILL, we will have a silent auction that will feature some great items including generous donations from several of our national partners: Shabby Chic, HandCraft Artisan Collection Wines, Donna Karan New York, and many more!
Dr. Jain, our current Lynn Sage Scholar, is continuing her clinical trial that investigates immunotherapy as a complimentary approach for eliminating breast cancer and we will continue to work tirelessly to raise the funds necessary to fund her work. Please click here to read more about Dr. Jain’s experience and research. The Lynn Sage Foundation hopes to have a scholar for 2015/2016 named by the end of this year – so stay tuned!
Please remember to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and sign up for our monthly newsletter to stay up to date on our events and ways you can get involved.
Thank you, as always, for your generous support in the fight against breast cancer. Together we can find a cure.
All our best,
Laura & Halee Sage
