The 2023 Breakthrough Ball celebrated discoveries that “wow” in cancer research at the University of Chicago Medicine Comprehensive Cancer Center. The gala raised more than $1.3 million to fund future cancer research initiatives with high breakthrough potential. The Breakthrough Board is one of Chicago’s oldest charitable boards and has raised more than $22 million since its inception 75 years ago. The event, co-chaired by Barbara Sessions and Cheena Chandra, was held at a private club in Chicago and was an evening of inspiration and hope for all who attended. cancerresearchfdn.org/thebreakthroughboard
