Stomp Out Breast Cancer

A cavalcade of pink shoes will march through the InterContinental Milwaukee, all in support of the American Cancer Society’s Stomp Out Breast Cancer. Guests are encouraged to don pink shoes, attire, and accessories as they enjoy tasty eats and brews—from local sponsors such as Leinenkugel, Blue Moon, and Batch 19 breweries, Kil@wat, Bar Louie Milwaukee, Maxie's Southern Comfort, and Blue's Egg—amid live crooning from Eric Ortiz of Rendition, a Chicago-based band that covers favorites such as The Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back” and a blues rendition of “The Wheels on the Bus.” Guests will have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets throughout the night or slip in bids for various items during the silent auction.

All proceeds from the event will go to the American Cancer Society, a volunteer-based program that reaches 3,400 communities nationwide. Though the ACS supports research, education, and advocacy for all types of cancer, it helps a large number of breast-cancer patients, offering phone counseling 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
