Debbie's Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer Hosts Its 9th Annual Night of Laughter to Raise Awareness and Funds to Find a Cure for Stomach Cancer


FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Dec. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Debbie's Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer (DDF) is excited to announce its 9th Annual Night of Laughter will be taking place on Sunday, January 28, 2018 at Signature Grand in Davie, Florida. Doors open at 5:30 p.m., and the show begins promptly at 7:00 p.m. The evening will feature hilarious comedy, a raffle with fantastic prizes, delicious drinks, and food. All proceeds will help fund research initiatives in hopes of finding a cure for stomach cancer.  

The night wouldn't be possible without the leadership of Co-Chairs Sheri Albert, Mitch Starr, Dr. Stephanie Davis, and the assistance of their amazing committee. Special recognition is also given the National Title Sponsor Lilly Oncology for their generosity and continued support. Sheri Albert, who is leading the event for the 8th year in a row, has helped raise over $250,000 through this event to aid research efforts for stomach cancer.

"Being a part of this event means more to me now than ever before," said Albert, who was recently diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. "Even though I have my own battle to fight, knowing that stomach cancer receives the least federal funding per cancer death of any cancer inspires me to fight harder to help find a cure. We may not be there yet, but I think that we can all agree that laughter is the best medicine."

Tickets are $75 and include a buffet dinner, 2 soft drinks, 2 raffle tickets, and a comedy show. Sponsorship opportunities are available and include reserved seating along with many other perks.
