Photos: Dana-Farber’s Dinner and Late-Night with Friends

Check out the scenes from the April 7, 2017 event at Hotel Commonwealth and The Hawthorne

The Friends of Dana-Farber and host, Chef Jeremy Sewall, raised more than $365,000 for cancer research and patient care at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The event celebrated friendship, food, and philanthropy through an interactive dinner and auction, and honored Annie McNamara, a 27-year-old cancer survivor.
