2nd Annual Barbecue with the Bucs

Gilda’s Club and the Pittsburgh Pirates’ Wives got together at the Club’s Strip District home to offer food, music, and a silent auction to approximately 150 Gilda’s Club fans. Gilda’s Club, which was founded in memory of comedian Gilda Radner, provides free support and activities for families and friends affected by cancer. Carol Lennon, the Western PA Club’s executive director, says while the event raised $13,000, the most inspiring portion of the evening was when members told their personal stories of why Gilda’s Club resonates in their lives.
