“We are so honored to join this group of amazing newswomen who come together each year for an amazing cause,” said Barry Glassman, president of Glassman Wealth Services.

Supporters, survivors, politicos and friends will come together for the evening to help raise awareness for breast cancer and to raise funds for this year’s beneficiary, the Celebremos La Vida! program of the Prevent Cancer Foundation. Based in Arlington, VA, the Prevent Cancer Foundation is the only U.S. nonprofit organization solely devoted to cancer prevention and early detection. Celebremos La Vida!, (or Let’s Celebrate Life!) is a breast and cervical cancer education and early detection program for medically under-served women in the Hispanic community.
