This year marks the 40th anniversary for the Lou Malnati's Cancer Benefit, and we look forward to another successful year of raising funds for cancer research and education programs. We will once again be hosting an evening of fun, food and comedy -- Chicago style!

The event will take place on September 20, 2010 at 6:00 pm at Lou Malnati's corporate office in Northbrook. The evening will be highlighted by a performance by The Second City featuring a suprise member of the 2010 Stanley Cup winning Chicago Blackhawks . The evening will also include live and silent auctions, a raffle, and delicious Lou Malnati's food.

The 39th Annual Lou Malnati's Cancer Benefit was a huge success! More than $160,000 was raised and donated to the Brain Tumor Institute of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Neuroblastoma research at Children's Memorial Hospital, and programs at Gilda's Club of Chicago. The evening included a performance by The Second City featuring Chicago Blackhawk Adam Burish.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY RAISED GO?

 

All proceeds benefit Lou Malnati's Cancer Research Fund, the charitable arm of Lou Malnati's. The fund will then allocate funds to Chicago-area cancer research and education programs at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago's Gilda's Club and Children's Memorial Hospital.

 

HISTORY

 

For the past 39 years, the Malnati family has hosted an annual one-day charity event. Lou and Jean Malnati first started the event as a scholarship fund for local athletes to Wake Forest University in the name of Brian Piccolo, and after Lou died of cancer in 1978, Jean carried on the annual tradition in Lou's name and the focus was changed to raising money for cancer research.

Last year the benefit raised more than $160,000, and in the past 10 years it has raised more than $3 million to benefit organizations such as Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Gilda's Club of Chicago, and Children's Memorial Hospital which are dedicated to finding a cure for cancer.
