The 17th annual Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation - "Collaborating for a Cause"
was held at Cipriani - Wall Street and was a huge success.  There was
both a live and silent auction and entertainment by Ziggy Marley.
Ellen and Michael Nierenberg were hosts and the honorees were the
designers Carley Cushnie and Michelle Ochs.

Reggae was the vibration of the evening  while Ziggy sang, and danced
and played the guitar to the rhythms of the night.

Whatever Ziggy was singing, the crowd joined in .

Love songs were everywhere.

Emcee for the evening was Chris Wragge, CBS

 

The night went on and the band played on.

The mission of the foundation is to eradicate cancer by bridging the gap
between lab science and the patient. More than $85 million has been raised to support the work of researchers across the globe.

  Hugh Hildesley of Sothebys did a great job at the live auction which included two black puppy labs.
Ziggy grabbed a hand out of the audience to dance with him.!!!!! It was a great party and a magnificent cause.
