American Cancer Society Welcomes NBC’s Allison Rosati to Black and White Ball

Allison Rosati, anchor of the award winning NBC 5 News at 5, 6 and 10 p.m. will be the emcee at the annual American Cancer Society Black and White Ball Saturday, March 2, at Westin Lombard at Yorktown Center.

In the last four years, the Black and White Ball has raised more than $1.4 million to support the American Cancer Society’s mission to help people stay well, get well, find cures and fight back to ensure a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

Event co-chairmen are President and CEO of LifeSource Jim Covert and his wife, Penny, and COO of Power Construction Terry Graber and his wife, Renee.

“In four short years, the Black and White Ball has grown into a premier suburban event to fund the cancer fight,” said Graber. “We couldn’t do it without the spectacular companies and individuals that have invested with us to create more birthdays.”

The Black and White Ball will begin at 5:30 p.m. and includes a reception, silent auction, dinner, live auction and entertainment. More than 500 guests are expected, including corporate partners, business and philanthropic leaders and other distinguished guests.
