Mardi Gras was the inspiration for the Foundation’s event of the year. Dancing with Dignity was held November 2 at the Chandler Center for the Arts. Over 700 guests, some in costume, were treated to an evening of food and music reminiscent of iconic New Orleans at this masquerade style gala.
The highlight of the evening was the dance show where teams of volunteers and their professional dance teachers teamed up for a competition rivaling the well-known television dance show. Click here to see the winning dancers and how successful this year’s event was thanks to the dancers, the many volunteers and sponsors, including a big “Thank you!” to our major event sponsors: Wells Fargo, Encompass Health, and the Dignity Health Medical Group.
Also, a special note of gratitude to Shawn Nerdahl and Terri Lamb for the creation of this event and for their 5 years of continued, dedicated support of the stroke survivors. Your passion is unmatched! In the 5 years since it's creation, donations from the event have funded support for people who have survived stroke, brain tumors, cancer, the loss of a loved one .. and more. Your generosity is great cause to be very Thankful!
