EDWARDSVILLE - Gateway Center in Collinsville, Illinois hosted this year’s Farm-to-Table event, highlighting delectable cuisine by local executive chefs. As a Premier Sponsor for this event, Gori Julian & Associates donated $10,000 which helps to raise funds for The American Cancer Society. Formed in 1913, The American Cancer Society is the nation’s largest community-based voluntary health organization playing a vital role in cancer research.

The event included libations from local distilleries, upscale wines, cocktails and delicious cuisine. A raffle and auction also took place along with entertainment from Midnight Piano Band. A mix of elegance but with a laid-back, casual feel, sponsors, vendors, volunteers and attendees played a key role in raising money and awareness for ACS, the American Cancer Society’s Metro East Chapter.
