St. Anthony’s Hospital Foundation

Sunset on the Serengeti Gala

That two-legged zebra and giraffe frolicking at Sunset on the Serengeti? Why, they were just two St. Anthony’s Hospital team members welcoming guests to the Africa-inspired gala benefit for the downtown St. Petersburg hospital’s nonprofit foundation on April 22 at the Coliseum. Emcee Veronica Cintro introduced hospital president Scott Smith, foundation executive director Kathy Parker and board chairman Travis Brown during the Moroccan barbecue dinner, and the Kuumba Dancers & Drummers added a colorful history lesson. Philanthropist Nancy Westphal spoke about having laparoscopic colon cancer surgery, expressing gratitude for the medical staff and the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany’s loving care. “Mission Moments” highlighting the hospital’s critical services helped the gala net nearly $260,000 for advanced surgical technology. — Amy Scherzer, photos courtesy of the St. Anthony’s Hospital Foundation
