Young Friends of the Abramson Cancer Center Fundraiser @ Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia

Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
The Young Friends of the Abramson Cancer Center are having a unique play date on Sunday, December 4, 2011 at Please Touch Museum.

The Young Friends of the Abramson Cancer Center is a dedicated group of men and women under the age of 50 who serve as the next generation of leadership volunteers and donors to Penn’s Abramson Cancer Center.

Young Friends supports the work of young cancer researchers and clinicians, whose brilliant ideas often go unrealized because of a lack in funding. Young Friends provides a forum for becoming more engaged with the mission of the cancer center and staying informed about the latest advances in prevention, detection and treatment of cancer.

The Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia was the first museum in the nation whose target audience is families with children under the age of seven. Its mission is to enrich the lives of children by creating learning opportunities through play, and lays the foundation for a lifetime of learning and cultural awareness.

This event takes place prior to the museum’s opening to the general public at 11 am, and promises to be a less crowded Please Touch experience.

Entertain your children and support a great cause at the same time:

Date: Sunday December 4, 2011
Time: 9 to 11 am
Location: Please Touch Museum, Memorial Hall in Fairmount Park, 4231 Avenue of the Republic, Philadelphia, PA 19131
Cost: $25 per person ($10 tax deductible), which includes admission, parking, carousel rides, and a discount coupon to the café. Children under 1 are free.

Click here to register for this event.

For more information about this event, please contact Michal Greenberg at michalg@upenn.edu or 215-573-2480.
