PADRES Contra El Cáncer
(PADRES), a non-profit organization committed to improving the quality of life
for Latino children with cancer and their families, celebrated the expansion
into the Las Vegas community by hosting its 11th annual fundraising
gala, “El Sueño de Esperanza” gala hosted by actress Eva Longoria at the newly
transformed Tropicana Las Vegas on Saturday, October 15. The evening, presented
by Farmers Insurance Group, raised funds to benefit PADRES and the lifesaving
work of the organization. Guests enjoyed gourmet cuisine and premier musical
entertainment.
In June 2011, PADRES and
Tropicana Las Vegas launched a cause-related partnership to promote pediatric
cancer awareness and to provide opportunities to raise supplemental program
funding. The first initiative under this partnership included PADRES’ largest
fundraising campaign in 2011, “A Weekend of Latin Style & Entertainment,”
was highlighted by the annual “El Sueño De Esperanza” gala.
