American Cancer Society Hosts Special Concert with Legendary Music Producer Quincy Jones and Friends, 5/23
The American Cancer Society will celebrate its 100th Birthday with "An evening with Quincy Jones & Friends," taking place on Thursday May 23rd at 8 p.m. at Atlanta's iconic Fox Theatre. The legendary music producer will be joined for an unforgettable evening by special guests including James Ingram, Patti Austin, Siedah Garrett, Nikki Yanofsky and Alfredo Rodriguez. Tickets start at $55 and are available for purchase now at www.FoxAtlTix.com, by calling 1-888-ATL-TIXX or at the Fox Theatre ticket office.
One of the most influential jazz musicians of the 20th century, Jones' creative magic has spanned more than six decades. He now brings that magic to the stage with the American Cancer Society to help celebrate 100 years of progress in the fight against cancer and usher the organization into the most ambitious undertaking yet - finishing the fight!
The American Cancer Society is using its 100th birthday (officially on May 22nd) to encourage people to join together, make noise and take action to finish the fight against cancer. The Society urges everyone to make some noise by donating at cancer.org/fight, participating in a local Relay For Life or Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in their community and/or enrolling in its groundbreaking Cancer Prevention Study-3 - to help find better ways to prevent cancer.
Today, two out of three people diagnosed with cancer are surviving the disease (for at least five years). More than 400 people a day in the U.S. are celebrating birthdays that would have otherwise been lost to cancer. As the Official Sponsor of Birthdays , The American Cancer Society will continue to make noise by amplifying its efforts to ensure lifesaving cancer research gets funded; by making sure people facing cancer have the help they need, such as a free place to stay during treatment or a ride to get there; and by fighting for equal access to quality health care, lifesaving screenings, and clean air.
