We are deeply grateful to everyone who joined us for Power of Your Purse. Thanks to your generosity, we are thrilled to share that we raised just under $20,000 in net profit. Every dollar will go directly toward supporting individuals 26 and under who are battling cancer and life-threatening illnesses.

To our 102 attendees and all of the dedicated volunteers who helped the evening run so smoothly—thank you! Your presence, energy, and support made this event truly special.

A heartfelt thank you to our courageous speaker, Rebecca, for bravely sharing her journey and the role our foundation played during such a challenging time. We are overjoyed to celebrate her incredible news: her latest test results show she is cancer-free!

We also extend our deepest gratitude to our amazing sponsors—Kelly Brothers Landscaping, The Cardiello Family, and The Nicosia Family—as well as our generous donors: Villa Sorrento Restaurant, Tenth and Pike, Clearvision, Summerfield HOA, Mid-Island Party Plus, Renato Reali, Judi Bua, Lauren Sharaby, Elizabeth Marino, Nicole Branca of The Skin Wellness Co., and Sue Simione of East End Embroidery. Your contributions helped make this event such a remarkable success.

To our incredible board: thank you for always showing up with dedication, passion, and heart. Our mission is stronger because of each of you.

We hope you’ll join LS26F at our upcoming events in 2026. Until then, we wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving and a safe, blessed holiday season and New Year.
