"What does AMC do?"
Officially, AMC Cancer Fund is dedicated to raising awareness and funds for the University of Colorado Cancer Center to support its outstanding programs in cancer prevention, care, education, research and service to the nation.
No event showcased the mission and built awareness better than the first annual women's event, Women, Wine and Wisdom. AMC hosted both the talented Jonna Tamases in her riotously entertaining, profoundly moving hour-long show "Jonna's body, Please Hold" as well as the dynamic Dr. Virginia Borges' friendly and highly informative "Girl Talk" session, all you want and need to know about the Young Women’s Breast Cancer Translational Program at the University of Colorado Cancer Center.
Of course, no women's event would be complete without a bit of wine and shopping. Wine flowed courtesy of Platinum Beverage owners Mark Price and Dean Shaunghnessy and shopping from jewels to tools included Silpada Jewelry, Tomboy Tools, Daisy Paw, Arbonne, art by Paula Berger and International Villa's owe Barbara Chapman supplied gems and art glass.
The evening's most compelling moments came after Jonna's amazing performance when she and Dr. Borges held court on stage in a dialogue as entertaining as it was informative regarding the outstanding programs in cancer prevention, care, education and research at the University of Colorado Cancer Center.
Needless to say, AMC's mission was fulfilled that night!
