CF Breath of Life Gala 2004
2004 is the 21st anniversary of the Breath of Life Gala and Auction. This huge black tie event is the largest one-day CF fundraiser in the country, raising an amazing $2,700,000! This year Carol and Robert were invited as guests of the CF Foundation. At the silent auction we came away with Krispy Kreme donuts for a year, tickets to the Burke Museum and Tori's name inserted into a Harry Nile radio play. At the dinner and live auction we only came away with the makings of a hangover.
(Above) There were two big video screens on either side of the stage showing photos of CF patients during a portion of the live auction, and they used three photos of Tori! The camera didn't cooperate too much, but I hope this gives you the idea.
