In an attempt to further the awareness about cancer, A Cause for Entertainment is set to host its fourth annual fundraising event to fight breast cancer on Sunday, October 7, 2018, in Candela in Los Angeles. This year’s event will raise money for the Dr. Susan Love Foundation (cancer research) and Shay Sharpe’s Pink Wishes, which grants last wishes and supports the families of women under the age of 40 who have been diagnosed and are terminally ill.

General admission includes access to the exclusive raffle, hors-d'oeuvres, live music, entertainment, and an InfiniFoto Booth; food and refreshments are to be provided by Gastro Garage.


The annual gala in previous years has drawn some of Hollywood’s most notable TV and film stars. Raffle and auction items have included meetings with top-tier casting directors, film and television memorabilia, dozens of rare and signed items, experiences, tickets, and meetings from numerous generous donors. This year’s star guests, auction items, and other special details will be announced soon.

“This gala brings together the best of Hollywood in the name of great causes,” said Jessica Sherman, Founder and President of A Cause for Entertainment in a statement. “We are excited to host yet another unforgettable event and raise money that can directly impact thousands of people.”


Founded by Jessica Sherman in 2015 after her grandmother was diagnosed with the disease, A Cause for Entertainment is a non-profit organization that raises funds to support the fight against breast cancer. The organization’s leaders are volunteers and dedicate their time outside of their day jobs across the entertainment industry to stand by their loved ones, support the broader community, and conquer cancer.
