Mark your calendars and get ready to celebrate. Pretty In Pink Foundation is hosting the 5th Annual Triple Crown Casino Night on Friday, April 17th at Legacy Stables and Events in Winston-Salem. This milestone event has become the signature fundraising celebration in the Triad, blending high energy entertainment with a powerful, lifesaving mission.
What began five years ago as a bold new idea has grown into one of the region’s most anticipated nights out. Triple Crown Casino Night invites guests to go all in for Pretty In Pink Foundation, which provides uninsured and under-insured breast cancer patients across North Carolina with financial assistance for quality, lifesaving medical treatment.
The anniversary celebration promises to raise the bar yet again. This year’s event will debut a sparkling champagne reception to kick off the evening, setting the tone for an unforgettable night. Guests will enjoy a gourmet dinner, a lively live auction and a lineup of exciting casino-style games. New this year are a high-energy “Spin to Win” game and an exciting new raffle, in addition to fan-favorite experiences and incredible prizes, including the ever-popular diamond giveaway.
“Triple Crown Casino Night has grown into something truly special for our community,” said Director of Business Development for Pretty In Pink Foundation Sayla Nedell. “As we celebrate our fifth anniversary, we are so excited to introduce new experiences that elevate the evening while staying true to what matters most – supporting breast cancer patients when they need it most.”
At the heart of the celebration is Pretty In Pink Foundation’s mission to remove financial barriers to lifesaving care. Many of the patients the foundation serves, known as Champions, are hardworking individuals who find themselves overwhelmed by the cost of treatment following a breast cancer diagnosis.
“Too many of our Champions are forced to choose between paying for medical treatment and covering basic living expenses,” Nedell explained. “Our role is to step in during that moment of crisis and eliminate those financial obstacles, so patients can focus on healing and survival rather than bills.”
Pretty In Pink Foundation provides direct financial assistance for surgeries, chemotherapy administration, radiation, insurance co-pays, deductibles, premiums and COBRA coverage. Payments are made directly to medical providers, easing stress and allowing patients to prioritize their health. Since Pretty In Pink was founded in 2004, they’ve served thousands of breast cancer patients across the state. The organization does not receive state or federal funding and relies entirely on the generosity of the community.
Triple Crown Casino Night has become more than a fundraiser. It is a celebration of hope, resilience and community spirit. Each year, supporters from across the Triad come together to enjoy a night of entertainment while making a tangible difference in the lives of local breast cancer patients.
“The energy in the room is incredible,” said Nedell. “While our guests have an amazing time, they also know that they’re supporting breast cancer patients currently in active treatment in our community.”
As Pretty In Pink Foundation toasts five years of Triple Crown Casino Night, the impact continues to grow. This anniversary event is a chance to celebrate how far the event has come and to invest in the lives it will continue to change.
