DDF celebrates a global movement with The Power of Periwinkle Illumination Celebration & Dinner at The Guitar Hotel in Hollywood, Florida.
Fort Lauderdale, Fla.- (November 24, 2023)- As Gastric Cancer Awareness Month unfolds, Debbie’s Dream Foundation: Curing Stomach Cancer (DDF) proudly announces a monumental achievement in partnership with My Gut Feeling Stomach Cancer Foundation of Canada (MGF). In just the first year of DDF joining the ‘Power of Periwinkle,’ an annual campaign hosted by MFG, more than 175 global monuments are confirmed to be illuminated in periwinkle honor of Gastric Cancer Awareness Day on November 30, 2023. Notable locations in the U.S. include the One World Trade Center and the 4 Times Square in New York, the Guitar Hotel at Seminole Hardrock in Florida, and Caesar’s Superdome in New Orleans. International sites include the world-famous Niagra Falls, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the Kyoto Tower.
To mark this extraordinary milestone, DDF is hosting The Power of Periwinkle Illumination Celebration & Dinner at The Guitar Hotel in Hollywood, Florida, on November 30, 2023, in honor of Stomach Cancer Awareness Day. This exclusive event is dedicated to DDF Board members and patient advocates who were pivotal in securing numerous illumination sites during the inaugural year of DDF’s participation in the initiative.
Andrea Eidelman, CEO of Debbie’s Dream Foundation, expresses her excitement: “We are thrilled to celebrate this incredible milestone, raising awareness worldwide about Gastric Cancer Awareness Day and Month. It’s awe-inspiring that we secured 72 illuminated sites in the U.S. alone in our first year of participation. This success sets the stage for the potential expansion of this collaborative effort as we strive to shine an even brighter light on stomach cancer awareness.”
