Hundreds of movers and shakers recently descended upon Windsor Station for a benefit event that replenished the soul: TheProgress in Cystic Fibrosis Research Gala. Not only did the magical night celebrate enormous strides made in the fight against the disease (with Canada achieving impressive results) but also honoured one of Cystic Fibrosis Canada (CFC)’s most generous and active supporters: the unstoppable MILA MULRONEY. Top that off with spectacular trappings like entertainment by Nikki Yanofsky and most importantly, a cool half mil for the foundation and the night was one for the books. Bravo.
