Description: The Gala celebration will feature ‘A Night at the Movies’ theme with a nostalgic look back at Hollywood’s Golden Age.  Guests can embrace the classic movie star atmosphere by dressing formal or as their favorite star. The annual Breath of Hope Gala raises funds to find a cure for LAM, or lymphangioleiomyomatosis, a fatal lung disease that affects only women.  The LAM Foundation was established in Cincinnati in 1995 by Sue Byrnes when her daughter, Andrea, was diagnosed with LAM. The Foundation is dedicated to finding a cure for LAM, as well as providing support and education to women living with LAM.  This event raised $82,000 in 2005.
Cost Information: $75
