7th Annual Dance-A-Thon

The 7th Annual Miriam Quigley Dance-A-Thon had the luck of the Irish on March 17th with nearly 650 attending.

The SKS Irish Dancers got everyone in the mood to dance and The Stomp was once again a huge success as well as the pie throwing contest.

Dr. Peter Phillips, Miriam's Doctor at CHOP, was on hand to thank everyone for their support of brain tumor research at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

$35,000 was raised from this event.

6th Annual Miriam Quigley Dance-A-Thon:

More than 500 family and friends came out with their dancing shoes on this year. The kids were filled with joy and happiness. These two traits were inherent to Miriam even in her darkest day. In a way, all of these carefree children were an extension of Miriam.

We are thrilled to report that the event raised nearly $40,000 for brain tumor research at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

Thank you on behalf of Miriam’s Kids Research Foundation for all who came out to support our event and volunteer to help at the event.

Together we are making a difference!

Charity Fashion Show

Miriam’s Kids teamed up with Neiman Marcus for a friend raiser fashion show and luncheon.

Dr. Peter Phillips, Miriam’s doctor, spoke and Neiman Marcus hosted a beautiful fashion show by designer Aimee Cho.

The clothing was spectacular and the luncheon delicious!

The event raised over $7,000 for brain tumor research!

Thanks to Main Line Suburban Life for a great 'Spotlight' feature following the 2010 Dance-A-Thon.
