2011 Key to the Cure: A Recap_Video

On October 15, 2011, the St.Vincent Foundation and Saks Fifth Avenue hosted the fifth annual Key To The Cure event.

Part of a nationwide Saks Fifth Avenue fundraising initiative to raise funds for cancer treatment and research, proceeds from the event benefit St.Vincent Cancer Care. This year, Jennifer Hudson served as the 2011 national Key to the Cure ambassador, while Elie Tahari designed the limited edition t-shirt.

Key to the cure has been called “one of the city’s fanciest fashion parties,” by the Indianapolis Star, and it certainly was a swanky affair this year, with models strutting their stuff down a catwalk elevated above dinner tables. However, what made the event truly special is how it honored cancer survivors.
