In 1999, Montreal General Hospital operating room nurse Tina Lamanuzzi wanted to hold a fundraiser in aid of the MGH. She enlisted the support of her husband and friends and held the first Valentine's Day gala at a neighbourhood hall for families and friends. They raised $15,000. The next year they filled the hall and raised about $18,000.
The members of "Friends for the Cure" eagerly look forward to their next fundraiser in 2017. Next year's gala will be held at Le Madison in Saint Leonard on February 18th, 2017. For tickets contact Tina Lamanuzzi at Tmuccino@videotron.ca
The members of "Friends for the Cure" are again very proudly organizing one of Montreal's most anticipated charity events; the 17th annual Friends for the Cure Fundraiser.
