Showstoppers

About

Nomination Form

Showstoppers are a group of Las Vegas’ leaders who have been nominated by their peers to be one of the 20 faces of the Fork Cancer event. Showstoppers serve as an extension of the American Cancer Society to advocate for its mission to impact every cancer and every life. They know their way around town, are well-connected, and philanthropic. They want to influence their community and make an impact in the fight to #SaveLives and #ForkCancer. We will work to create a fundraising plan to hit $5,000.
