The 11th Annual American Cancer Society Fundraiser will be held on Thursday, January 29, 2026, in the Clubhouse Party Room. The goal this year is to surpass last year’s contribution of $12,389, which included an $800 donation from Larry Cohen’s Craft Fair. Tickets are $20.00 for CVE residents and their guests. Donations are encouraged from those who are unable to attend.

Les Complices (Ginette Lauzon and Laurent Labrecque) will provide live music and singing in French, Spanish, and English. They will perform both ballroom and line dance music for everyone’s enjoyment. They will alternate with Raymond Labrecque and Rejeanne Thiffault, who will also provide line dance music. Katia (Kathy Shorr) will once again delight guests with her well-known belly-dancing performance.

Last year, resident Pina Ronca generously donated more than 25 raffle baskets to support the event. Raffles will again play a key role in raising funds for cancer research. Resident Nancy Greenfield is also expected to provide her beautiful decorative touches.

Organizer Linda Hochberg describes this annual Cancer Benefit as a true example of “a community working together.” She hopes residents will support the American Cancer Society in its mission to fight for a world without cancer.
