Sponsors and supporters of Philly Fights Cancer gathered at Philadelphia’s Fitler Club on Monday, September 23 for the Philly Fights Cancer: Round 5 Patron Party, a fundraiser which took place before the annual Philly Fights Cancer event on Saturday, October 26th. Guests enjoyed a silent auction inclusive of items from notable Philadelphia restaurants and businesses, including Garces Catering, Scarpetta, Neiman Marcus, Tito’s, Evantine Design, Newuman’s Kitchen, and A. Jacoby & Company. The evening also included light bites from the Fitler Club’s exclusive chef Mark Vetri, as well as hand-crafted cocktails and live entertainment.

Excitement is high as Philly Fights Cancer: Round 5 approaches, which will once again take place at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. The 5-year milestone of this event also marks an astounding $26 million raised since 2015.
