Breast cancer is a cause close to my heart; I’ve seen firsthand the impact it has on women and their families, whether through my own experiences or those of loved ones.”
Degaetano added, “While this cause is serious, we believe in celebrating life and resilience with a touch of fun! Our special bar menu features playful cocktails to celebrate the incredible strength and resilience of those affected by the disease, while also raising funds to the fight against it.”
