From beyond the Milky Way, a committee of cosmic dreamers have aligned the stars to bring you a night illuminated by wonder and hope. You are cordially invited to embark on a fantastical journey on Saturday, September 6th, 2025 at the Tulalip Resort Casino. Join us to celebrate the Night of Hope Gala: A Galaxy of Hope!
Kerri has been volunteering on the Night of Hope Gala’s planning committee since 2022, and we are delighted to have her as co-chair of the 2025 Gala! Kerri has been a mortgage professional since 1999 and was an Arabian horse trainer prior.
Hannah first attended the Gala in 2022 as table captain for a company-sponsored table. She was moved by the ACS mission and enjoyed the event so much that she volunteered for event setup in 2023, joined the planning committee in 2024, and now we’re happy to have her as co-chair of the 2025 Gala! Hannah is passionate about serving her community in many ways, including 10+ years as a performing volunteer, former BOD member and current co-captain of Cheer Seattle, an all-adult, non-profit cheerleading organization that raises funds and awareness for the LGBTQIA+ community. Hannah is the HR Manager at Northwest Naturals, a leading supplier of fruit juice products based in Bothell, WA.
Leadership
Since 1946, the American Cancer Society has supported researchers at pivotal points in their career – to give them the support they need to keep great research going or to take their ideas from dream to reality. The American Cancer Society is proud to have helped more than 24,000 investigators make important advances in prevention, early detection, treatment, and care for those with cancer. In fact, 50 of those investigators have gone on to win the Nobel Prize, considered the highest accolade any scientist can receive. As the largest private not-for-profit, non-governmental funder of cancer research in the US, the American Cancer Society has played a role in many of the major cancer research breakthroughs of the last century.
