Grand View League, a volunteer fundraising branch of the American Cancer Society is hosting its 2018 Design & Discovery…Dedicated to a cure event on Thursday, September 13th at its new spacious venue located at the Rotary Summit Center in downtown San Jose.  In addition to featuring beautiful views, this facility provides easily accessible parking from the elevator directly to the Rotary Summit Center on the 7th floor. 

The event will again feature the immensely popular raffle of beautiful tablescapes by local designers.  Each designer will once again display their talent by showcasing their one-of-a-kind tablescape design.  Also featured at the event is a Silent Auction whereby guests will have an opportunity to view and bid on lovely items and unique experiences. 

Guests will also have an opportunity to shop at some of their favorite boutiques from past years as well as several new boutiques. The on-site boutiques will be selling jewelry, clothing, accessories and décor for the home.  Each boutique will donate a portion of its sales to the American Cancer Society. Following the sit-down luncheon, a unique new entertainment feature of the event will be presented by Interior Designer, Linda Floyd.  Linda’s work has been showcased in many national publications including Traditional Home magazine, Gentry, Colorado Homes, Dream Kitchens, and Country Inns magazine.

Guests will be updated on the Grand View League Research Funding Initiative launched in 2016. This initiative has funded a local cancer research scientist each year since its inception.

Tickets can be purchased on line at www.ACSGrandViewLeague.org or by calling Janeth Berg at 408.688.0112.

As the afternoon draws to a close, guests will depart knowing they have supported an important cause and did so while enjoying the company of friends, new and old.

Grand View League has raised over $15 million in support of the Society in its cancer research and patient services efforts. There are now 47 Nobel Laureates among the Society’s funded researchers. This year marks the 105th birthday of the American Cancer Society. This is a chance for us to reflect on our progress, but even more so to continue our efforts to finish the fight.
