Bear Necessities Pediatric Cancer Foundation hosted its Little Black Dress Luncheon at Skokie Country Club in early November, bringing together women and supporters to honor children who are fighting cancer. With nearly 100 guests in attendance, the event successfully raised $24,000 for pediatric cancer research and programs for those affected. Founder and CEO Kathleen Casey inspired guests with the foundation’s mission to end pediatric cancer while giving hope to families affected. Emcee Whitney Reynolds shared her connection to the organization and introduced special guest speaker—13-year-old survivor and Bear Hug Ambassador—Maddie Coyle. bearnecessities.org
