WITH SPECIAL THANKS TO COACH LESLIE LEGANIA-SHELBY FOR THE LOVE AND DEDICATION GIVEN TO THE YOU NIGHT PROGRAM.
Thank you to all of the professional models who donated their time and talent to support the sisters of You Night. Thank you to all of the sisters of You Night who YouNighted together so that they can be a voice to others who are looking for a sisterhood of support.
Our programs are made possible from sponsorship support, and from ticket sales. Thank you to everyone who supports our mission of helping women emotionally cope after a cancer diagnosis. Proceeds help us provide a variety of year-round programs to women who are diagnosed with cancer. If you know a woman who needs support, we encourage her to sign up for our free monthly SPARK workshops: www.sparkworkshops.net (held on the Northshore and Southshore). Or visit our main website for additional program offerings: www.younightevents.com. Please call our office if we can be of assistance: 877-591-5936 x1
THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
Research shows that women who are involved in socially active support groups have better health outcomes. We partner with area hospitals and physicians to address emotional concerns that women face from diagnosis to years after they are declared "NED" (no evidence of disease).
You Night is a sisterhood of support for women who have had or are currently battling any type of cancer. We offer unique year-round programs that are alternatives to traditional cancer survivor support groups. Our method behind our programs is to bring groups of women together to experience empowering activities that allow them to see themselves differently. The bond that is created along the way not only allows for fun and life-changing experiences, but results in lifelong friendships that will endure well past the program experience.
Programs are made possible through sponsorship to You Night Events, LLC, and through charitable donations to our WE LIFT YOU UP fund -- a public charity whose mission is to help women embrace life beyond cancer (EIN 82-4444545).
EMPOWER ONE. IMPACT MANY
WE HELP WOMEN EMBRACE LIFE BEYOND CANCER.
