On April 25, 2025 the American Cancer Society will host its 10th Annual Best Dressed Jackson event. This special evening honors fashion forward leadership professionals who are making a positive impact on the Jackson metro area. The honorees are nominated by their community for upholding substantial character. Our mission is to increase education and advocates for the early detection and prevention of cancer through these rising leaders. Funds raised at Best Dressed Jackson are used to provide critical patient services, fund Hope Lodge and transportation to treatment, cancer research, and education for the residents of Mississippi. This years chairs are Audrey & Gage McCarty.
Dear Friends,
We are excited to extend an invitation to you for the 10th Annual Best Dressed Jackson, benefiting the American Cancer Society. This promises to be a truly special evening, dedicated to honoring and remembering those we’ve lost to all forms of cancer.
It is our privilege to lead this event, as both the American Cancer Society and Best Dressed Jackson are near and dear to our heart. All funds raised will directly support the ACS’s comprehensive efforts in cancer research, patient assistance, Road to Recovery, and Hope Lodge.
With your support, the American Cancer Society continues its vital work to save lives, celebrate survivors, and lead the fight for a world free from cancer. We sincerely hope you will join us in this important mission on April 25, 2025.
Sincerely,
Audrey & Gage McCarty
