Edmonton Elks News Release
(Edmonton) - The Edmonton Elks Football Club are pleased to announce they will be holding an online 50/50 in support of the Edmonton Elks Women's Ovarian Cancer Research Endowment Fund supporting the Alberta Women's Health Foundation, with the event sponsored by James H. Brown & Associates.
Every year the organization holds a dinner gala at the Brick Field at Commonwealth Stadium with a champagne reception in the Elks locker room followed by a seated dinner with a silent auction and speakers. Due to COVID-19 and health restrictions we were unable to hold our event in person this year.
We did not want to miss out on another year of fundraising, which is why we are happy to announce we will be holding an online 50/50 event.
The Edmonton Elks Women's Dinner online fundraiser, sponsored by James H. Brown & Associates, will feature a 50/50 and will take place on Monday, June 28, 2021 from 10:00am to 9:00pm.
The Edmonton Elks Women's Dinner, sponsored by James H. Brown & Associates, began in 2007 in memory of long-time team employee Pam Monastyrskyj, who lost her battle with ovarian cancer two years earlier. In 2008, the Edmonton Elks Women's Ovarian Cancer Research Endowment Fund was set up to provide long-term, sustainable funding for researchers at the Lois Hole Hospital for Women. To date, the annual event has raised over $600,000 to battle the deadly disease.
