The DBCC’s Shining Light Awards recognize individuals and organizations who have made significant contributions to the fight against breast cancer in the Greater Delaware region.

One of the co-chairs for this event, Elizabeth Gula, shared, “I’m so honored to be able to host such an amazing event recognizing the achievements of those that work hard every day to end breast cancer. Over 30 years ago, I lost my aunt to breast cancer and if she had been diagnosed today, it would have been treatable, so I understand how important it is to advance the science, treatments and care for this horrific disease.”
This event would not be possible without generous sponsors. The choice to sponsor this event not only puts your business in front of a great audience both online and at the ceremony but also helps facilitate breast health education and breast cancer survivor programs for those who need it most. Each sponsorship level signifies one of DBCC’s focuses for its constituents: hope, knowledge, support, empowerment, and awareness.
