The inaugural Chicago Epicurean raised over $2 million for cancer research.
The V Foundation for Cancer Research was founded by ESPN and legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano with one goal in mind: to achieve Victory Over Cancer®.
Since its formation in 1993, the V Foundation has awarded over $353 million in cancer research grants nationwide and has grown to become one of the premier supporters of cutting-edge cancer research. The Foundation awards peer-reviewed grants through a competitive awards process strictly supervised by a Scientific Advisory Committee.
