For the ninth year, CURE Childhood Cancer supporters turned out in style for the Believe Ball, an evening of dinner, auctions, raffles and a rousing musical and dance performance by the band Papa Sol.
Emceed by media veteran Jaye Watson, the event at the St. Regis Atlanta brought together 525 guests to raise $1.5 million to support CURE’s efforts to fund childhood cancer research and support patients and families dealing with the disease. A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Ragab Spirit of Hope award, named for CURE’s founder, Dr. Abdel Ragab. This year’s recipients, Sylvia and Pat Tylka, exemplify Ragab’s compassion, dedication and perseverance through their work on the CURE board and in creating the Believe Ball. Simply Buckhead was a proud media sponsor.
