SUMMARY:CureFest for Childhood Cancer
DESCRIPTION:CureFest 2021 will take place in a hybrid format this September. There will be an in-person event in Washington, DC as well as an interactive virtual format that will allow families from across the world to hold One Voice Walks and other activities in their own communities.\n​2020’s virtual-only format allowed us to reach many families that would otherwise be unable to attend CureFest in person. Based on this success, we made the decision to offer a virtual experience in 2021 even though we will have an in-person presence this year in our Nation’s Capital.\nCureFest for Childhood Cancer will be held in-person in Washington, DC on September 23 – 26, 2021.\nHere are some of the features of in-person CureFest:\n​\nThursday, September 23\n​Golden Toast cocktail reception honoring Congressional Childhood Cancer Caucus Co-chairs\nTime: 6 PM to 8:30 PM\n​Hosted by the Carson Leslie Foundation\nRSVP required: Contact Annette Leslie at annette@carsonlesliefoundation.org for details and to RSVP.\n​\nFriday, September 24\nChildhood Cancer Summit (Time TBD)\n​Hosted by the Congressional Childhood Cancer Caucus\nClimb the Hill Youth Lobby Day (Time TBD)\nHosted by Kids V Cancer\nSaturday, September 25\n​TOUGH2GETHER Against DIPG/DMG Breakfast\n​Time: 10 AM to 12:30 PM\nHosted by #TOUGH2GETHER\nPlease note there there is a $15 fee for this event.\nDetails\n​\nRally to the Capitol\nTime: Tentatively 3 PM to 4:30 PM\nHosted by the Rally Foundation\n​CureFest Meet and Greet at Freedom Plaza\nTime: 5 PM to 7 PM\nA Night of Golden Lights Program\n​Time: 7 PM to 8:30 PM\n​Candlelight Vigil\n​Time: 8:30 to 9 PM\nSunday, September 26\n​All activities at the National Sylvan Theater near the Washington Monument\n​Community Vocal and Dance Performances\nTime: 11 AM to 12 PM\n​Speeches, Tributes including medals and shoe display\nTime: 12 PM to 12:30 PM\n \n​Closing Performance\nTime: 12:30 PM\n​\n
