We would like to invite you to a silent photography auction, Art for CARE.
When: October 23rd 2008, 6-9pm (bidding closes at 8:15pm)
Where: Left Space Studios, 2055 Bryant Street, between 18th and 19th Streets,
Why: To benefit San Francisco General Hospital’s CARE (Cancer Awareness, Resources, and Education) program
CARE offers "live" health education programs in English, Spanish, and Cantonese for San Francisco General Hospital's cancer patients. We also offer a multilingual theater program, The Araceli Theater Project. The cancer patients CARE serves are vibrant and diverse, but face enormous challenges in taking care of their health. Since its inception in 2002, over 600 cancer patients at San Francisco General Hospital have participated in the CARE program and the Araceli Theater Project.
Newly diagnosed cancer patients, as well as current CARE participants, are invited to join every new 10 - 12 week CARE series. Each weekly group meeting includes an interactive health related presentation, a "check-in" activity, and dinner.
Art for CARE is going to be a first for San Francisco General Hospital. We’ll have live music, fabulous food catered by Fresca: Peruvian Cuisine, and beautiful donated photography. The event will be hosted at Left Space Studios. The event promises to be both elegant and memorable, as well as a great way to support community-based cancer education.
Please help us spread the word about this exciting event!
We look forward to seeing you at Art for CARE on October 23rd!
