Our Mission is SIMPLE

SAVE LIVES AND CELEBRATE LIFE.

EVERY SINGLE DAY. 

Today we ask you to join us as a united force against all cancers through your support of the 37th Annual Night of Wine and Roses Gala on May 12, 2023 at the Palace in Somerset Park. This elegant evening promises to be a night you'll never forget with our renowned live and silent auctions, an extraordinary dinner, and lively entertainment.

We are rolling out the red carpet to celebrate the progress we’ve made in fighting to end cancer as we know it and recognize the generosity of our supporters over the past 37 years. This is our first celebration back in person since 2019, however, cancer didn’t stop, so neither did we. We will be recognizing our 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 honorees this evening and hope you will join us.

EVENT HISTORY

In the past six years, Night of Wine and Roses has raised over  $2.5 million to support the American Cancer Society’s mission to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer. It is one of New Jersey's premier fundraising events with national notoriety.

The American Cancer Society is the nationwide, community-based, voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer, through research, education, advocacy, and service.

​

Progress in the war against cancer has triggered a 33% decline in U.S. deaths over the past two decades, which equates to 3.8 million fewer cancer deaths. But we can’t stop there.
