Gilda’s Club Quad Cities and NormaLeah Ovarian Cancer Initiative have joined forces to bring back one of our most anticipated events. Join KWQC host, Paula Sands, at Diamonds and Divas as we celebrate women with an evening of: Socializing Shopping Drinks Hors d’oeuvres Pampering Inspiration The night will begin with a cocktail reception as women mingle throughout our various pampering stations, dine on the complimentary hors d’oeuvres and bid on their favorite raffle items through our silent auction. The night will close out with an inspiring message from a local community member who’s life has been impacted by cancer and some amazing live auction items. Please make sure you join our Facebook event pageor updates on live auctions and other event details. What Diva doesn’t like a little bling? Make sure you pre-register to receive an LED princess cut diamond bling ring FREE with your event registration. These rings will only be available to those that register in advance so don’t miss out because everyone will want one! Have a group of 8 friends that will be attending or a business owner that wants to treat your female employees as your guest for the night? Make sure you sign up for a reserved table. (Tables must be reserved in advance). Drinks will be available at our cash bar but make sure you reserve your bottle of wine when making your event reservation. Each bottle of wine that is reserved in advance will include 2 complimentary 11oz light up LED wine glasses. These glasses are sure to be a hit as they have 3 settings that include flash, slow strobe & steady light. Want to feel like a real Diva for the night? Reserve your VIP parking pass which will give you access to park directly in front of the Figge Art Museum with a personal escort from one of our Buff Boyz. Free parking is available in the public lot along River Drive directly across from the Figge or any public parking ramp or lot in the downtown area. We are excited to be bringing Bras for Lindsay’s Cause to our event. Proceeds from all bras sold in the auction at Diamonds & Divas will benefit the Inflammatory Breast Cancer Research Foundation in honor of Lindsay Thul. Lindsay was a Quad Cities native that lost her fight against IBC at the age of 29. Her friends and family continue to fight for early detection and treatment research. The remaining funds raised at this event will provide support and education to those in our community that are impacted by cancer through the support of Gilda’s Club and NormaLeah. Gilda’s Club Quad Cities ensures that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action, and sustained by community. Our programs serve the whole family, not just the person living with cancer. All programs at Gilda’s Club are offered free of cost and are research and evidence based. Services include social and emotional support, education, healthy lifestyle activities and children/teen support. The NormaLeah Ovarian Cancer Initiative is enriching lives through early detection education, patient support services and research funding for ovarian cancer. We are empowering women and those who love them to recognize the subtle symptoms, assess their personal risk and seek medical attention for the best outcome. NormahLeah Ovarian Cancer Initiative is taking the silence out of ovarian cancer.
