The Gala – San Francisco

Thank you to everyone who joined us on June 10th at The Fairmont San Francisco for The Gala, a 3-way cooperative event showcasing a joint focus on research and awareness for brain aneurysm, AVM, and hemorrhagic stroke as well as neurosurgical care of indigent people. We were honored to have you join us for this unforgettable evening as we paid tribute to Dr. Michael Lawton, those who have lost their lives to these devastating conditions and the survivors who fight everyday to recover.

A special thank you to our emcee, actor and director Zach Braff, our William L. Young Achievement Award recipient, Dr. Michael Lawton, The Aneurysm and AVM Foundation and Mission:Brain for helping us make this event an incredible evening!

Your support for our cause allows us to continue to support patients and families, research, treatment and awareness of brain aneurysms, AVM’s and hemorrhagic strokes. We can’t thank you enough.
