On November 10, 2009 the Firefighter Cancer Support Network will celebrate its second annual Gala Dinner and Fundraiser Fight Cancer With Fire. The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza between the hours of 6:00PM and 10:30PM. The special guest for the evening will be nationally recognized comedian/actor Paul Rodriguez. The night promises to be a fun filled event with great entertainment, a fabulous meal prepared especially for our event, and a chance to win and/or bid on some fantastic prizes.

The objective of the Firefighter Cancer Support Network (FCSN) is to provide timely assistance to all fire service members and their families in the event of cancer diagnosis. We maintain and continuously update a roster of mentors who have personal experience with many types of cancers who will personally guide affected individuals through the process of dealing with their specific illnesses. The FCSN also provides awareness to fire service members and their families about the importance of cancer prevention and screening by coordinating educational opportunities with various health programs.
If you have questions or need further assistance, please contact Event Coordinator Tom Knerl at (213) 500-6700 or tknerl@fcsn.net. Event and table sponsorships are still available. Contact Tom Knerl for further information regarding sponsorships.
We look forward to seeing you at this special event; a time to reflect on the celebration of life and family.
