Honorees
The Annual Diamond Ball is one of the American Cancer Society’s oldest and most distinguished galas in New Jersey. This Ball is the Society’s opportunity to support those who have battled cancer, honor those who have made important contributions to the oncology field, and raise funds to provide our critical patient programs and services. Over the past ten years alone, the Diamond Ball has raised more than $2 million toward the fight against cancer!
With a 40-year history, the Diamond Ball has a tradition of honoring those who have gone above and beyond to help cancer patients and their families fight back against this terrible disease.
This year the Diamond Ball will honor accomplished physicians from:
