Dear Friends,
Welcome to the 15th Anniversary American Cancer Society Imagination Ball!
It is an honor to serve as Chairs of this milestone celebration as we gather on Friday, February 12, 2027, at the JW Marriott Marco Island Beach Resort for an unforgettable evening inspired by our Fire & Ice theme.
For the past 15 years, the Imagination Ball has brought together an extraordinary community of supporters dedicated to one shared mission—to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. While we celebrate all that has been accomplished, we also recognize there is still important work ahead. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors, and volunteers, the American Cancer Society continues to fund groundbreaking research, provide critical patient support, and advocate for lifesaving advancements that are making a difference every day.
Our family’s connection to the American Cancer Society spans decades, and it has been a privilege to be part of the Imagination Ball since its inception. We are grateful to once again serve as Chairs, alongside our Co-Chairs, Moose and Mary Jo O’Regan, and with the continued guidance of Chair Emerita Debra Shanahan. Together with our incredible committee, we are excited to create a memorable evening that celebrates 15 years of impact while looking ahead to an even brighter future.
Thank you for joining us and for investing in hope. Your partnership brings us one step closer to a world without cancer, and we couldn’t do it without you.
We look forward to celebrating with you on February 12!
With sincere gratitude,
Rick & Lisa Popoff
