Mt. Lebanon resident Art McAuley will receive the Light Up Cancer Bridges Award for his significant economic and social contributions that have enabled the expansion of vital programs and services.

The ceremony will take place Nov. 22 during the Cancer Bridges Light Up Gala at the Westin Pittsburgh. McAuley is one of five to be honored for their impact on the nonprofit’s mission and the lives of those affected by cancer.

McAuley was an active board member for 14 years for Gilda’s Club and Our Clubhouse and served on the merger committee when Our Clubhouse merged with the Cancer Caring Center to form Cancer Bridges.

Since 1988, Cancer Bridges has been a pillar of support for individuals diagnosed with cancer, their loved ones, those mourning loss, and survivors. The organization offers a wide range of free programs and services designed to address their emotional, social, educational, and physical needs.

The annual Light Up Gala serves as a tribute to those who have made a lasting contribution to the organization’s mission and the broader cancer community.

Additional winners are Light Up Hope Award, Ken Parme; Light Up Pittsburgh Award, Karen Schwaderer, RN, BSN, OCN; Light Up Community Award, Cristina Talotta, and Light Up Organization Award, GBU Financial.

The evening will feature KDKA’s Celina Pompeani Mathison as emcee and Elizabeth Wild, President of UPMC Hillman Cancer Center, as the keynote speaker. There will also be dinner, entertainment, a silent auction and dancing. All proceeds support Cancer Bridges.

The title sponsors for the event are UPMC Hillman Cancer Center and UPMC Magee-Womens. All proceeds will benefit Cancer Bridges’ free emotional, social, and health and wellness programming.
