Funky Monkey
Smile-A-Mile Fundraiser Offers a Party With a Purpose Guests will gather June 17 to take part in Funky Monkey, an event to raise money for Smile-A-Mile’s fight against childhood cancer. The annual event will feature silent and live auctions, bingo, live music from The Divines and complimentary drinks, with a great view of the city and Smile-AMile Place from Regions Field. The event is hosted by Smile-A-Mile’s junior board of directors. Beer and wine raffles will be sponsored by The Sheffield Group, a photo booth for selfies will be sponsored by Burr & Forman, and Avani Rupa will have a “Ring Bling” raffle. Smile-A-Mile started more than 35 years ago with a single summer camp session for children in Alabama with cancer. Over the years, the organization has grown into a year-round program that serves children and their families from diagnosis and through the years beyond treatment. Smile-A-Mile’s mission is to provide hope, healing of the spirit and love for the whole family during the childhood cancer journey through year-round educational programming.
