Each year, the St. Louis community unites for the Champions of Hope Gala, led by the CEOs Against Cancer – St. Louis Chapter, to advance the mission of the American Cancer Society and make a lasting impact in the fight against cancer. Instead of traditional black tie attire, guests were invited to wear their best western glam, and enjoy a fun and vibrant evening, including a special performance by Brothers Osborne.
