THE BREAKTHROUGH BALL

In November, The Breakthrough Board, the group formerly known as the University of Chicago Cancer Research Foundation Women’s Board, hosted “Shining A Light Where Science Meets Creativity,” at the Four Seasons Hotel. A fun cocktail hour preceded dinner in a dazzling ballroom filled with colorful ambient light, symbolizing the creative minds of the cancer researchers at UChicago Medicine. The annual “Partner In Breakthroughs Award” was presented to the Duchossois Family for their longstanding philanthropic support of cancer research at the University of Chicago. Sotheby’s Gary Metzner led the evening’s live auction. Post-auction, the crowd hit the dance floor to music spun by DJ Madrid. Funds raised support cancer research at UChicago Medicine. cancerresearchfdn.org/thebreakthroughboard/
