A record-breaking $71,000 was raised at Keira Grace Foundation’s annual fundraising event held at the Santa Fe College Fine Arts Hall on Feb. 16. The nonprofit’s eighth annual fundraiser, Share the Cure, brought the Gainesville community together for a virtual house raising of the Share the Cure House that will open in the Dominican Republic this year.
Former University of Florida wide receiver and Athletic Hall of Fame Inductee, Chris Doering was the honorary chair for the event and announced he will be hosting trips to the Share the Cure house once it has opened.
Share the Cure 2013 was hosted by WCJB TV 20 evening anchor David Snyder and media personality Ilene Silverman. The event included a special performance by NBC’s former “The Voice contestant, Nathalie Hernandez, and a photographic journey of a Dominican child with cancer and her family was presented.
