On Sunday, June 13th, 2010, the Krewe of Zingaro will host its Fourth Annual Zignature Wine-Tasting Charity Event with an exclusive selection of wines, food samplings and a silent auction, to benefit the Children's Cancer Research Group at St. Joseph's Children's Hospital.

The fundraiser, open to the public, will be from 4 to 7 p.m. June 13 at The Tampa Club Downtown, Tampa, FL. Tickets are $50 in advance and $60 at the door. For Directions, click here.

Fine Wine and Spirits and PRP Wines will provide the wine samples and will offer customized commemorative wine for purchase.

All proceeds from the event will benefit The Children's Cancer Research Group (CCRG). The Group, staffed entirely by parent volunteers, donates 100% of all funds to research being done on childhood cancers at St. Joseph's Children's Hospital. St. Joseph's is the only community hospital in Florida and one of a very few non-university hospitals in the U.S. with a research laboratory dedicated to pediatric cancer research.

Current research includes efforts to silence the gene that is often associated with medulloblastoma, a brain cancer in children. Other studies include production of a vaccine against neuroblastoma. The lab has made some important discoveries and your support can help continue the breakthroughs being made in our own community.

It is estimated that one out of every 330 children in America will develop cancer before the age of 20. Research conducted in the lab has already yielded encouraging results.
