Uncork Up North Returns
for it’s 4th year at the Hagerty Garage
in Traverse City on October 2nd
The region’s top chefs, wineries and sommeliers will gather for an unforgettable evening of food and wine — all in support of breast cancer care at the Cowell Family Cancer Center through Munson Healthcare. Together, we’ll raise vital funds to assist women in Northern Michigan facing financial hardship due to a breast cancer diagnosis.
Join us and be part of a community rooted in compassion, connection, and purpose — and help us make a meaningful difference, one glass at a time.
In recent years, funding from the Munson Cancer Patient Needs Fund has supported 33 breast cancer patients in active treatment across Northern Michigan, assisting with essential expenses such as transportation and gas cards, groceries, auto insurance, utilities (electric, gas, cable), property taxes and wigs.
“We are beyond grateful to the Dynami Foundation and Uncork Up North for their generous support,” said Kathy LaRaia, Vice President of Oncology & Professional Services at Munson Healthcare. “This funding allows us to provide hope, healing, and life-changing resources for patients and families in our community.”
