​ Curémonos to Celebrate 7th Annual Fundraising Event

Curémonos will celebrate their 7th annual fundraising on October 6th!

Summit, New Jersey – Curémonos will celebrate their 7th annual fundraising on October 6th. All proceeds from the event will benefit Curémonos’ programs that have already reached more than 2,600 medically underserved women. Guests can enjoy Latin cuisine, cocktails, music, and culture.

Curémonos’ shared mission is to tackle the stigmas and cultural barriers that inhibit medically underserved minority women from conquering their breast cancer diagnosis. The event’s theme, “The Time Is Now,” adequately reflects the organization’s commitment to provide education, support and advocacy to these women.

Since the organization’s inception, Curémonos has partnered with various committed individuals and organizations who make their programs possible. This year, Curémonos will honor guest speaker Vincent P. Ursino, Sr. with the Visionary Award for his continued support of the organization during all these years. In addition, Curémonos will honor Sofi’s Salon, which has consistently partnered with the organization to provide a full day of pampering and relaxation to Latina breast cancer survivors.
