FIGHT FOR CURE is a non for profit organization made up of young professionals between the ages of 21-45. FFC is based in Philadelphia and raises awareness and money to help benefit the Kimmel Cancer Center located in downtown Philadelphia. This organization was founded by Michael Patlakh in 2009 and aims to donate as much money as possible with a yearly black tie event and community minded fundraisers in between. FFC is growing everyday and the support is endless, currently FFC is run by a main ‘executive committee' which consists of people who are the lead conductees' of executing all FFC events, fundraisers, and committee meetings. The executive committee works in collaboration with shining-stars, known as the ‘committee associates,' and Philadelphia's elite social network of event promoters and party hosts. Our mission is to raise money and create youth awareness by putting together various events including: Galas for the youth of Philadelphia, social events, and fundraisers, which will increase important knowledge of our organization and unite community involvement. All Fight for Cure event proceeds will be donated to the Kimmel Cancer Center to continue the fight against one of the deadliest diseases.
