“For the past seven years, the Ladies Luncheon was held in May at a private residence, but had to be canceled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Marion Waxman, chair of the Ladies Luncheon. “Now with most people vaccinated, we are thrilled to bring donors and supporters together again, to raise vital funds for cancer research.”
In addition to Waxman, the other event chair is Pamela Morgan with co-chairs Erica LInden-Fineberg, Nancy Litman, Lauren Silvers and Helen Vaysman. Tickets are $300 and tables are $3,000. Reservations can be made through Waxmancancer.org/luncheon.
Along with his namesake collection, Halperin also designs the Ungaro collection, which will be sold exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue, starting with resort.
