Roni said, “I have grown up knowing Michael Milken personally and seeing his genius, devotion and commitment to finding a cure for prostate cancer. As I have attended his various events in the past, I have come to realize how crucial it is to educate the younger generation about prostate cancer, give them tools for prevention and highlight the importance of getting involved. The Prostate Cancer Foundation funds groundbreaking research that is finding cures for a cancer that 1 out of 9 men get throughout their lifetime. I am honored to be able to carry forward all their great work and dedicated to helping them find a cure starting with the lunch I am hosting for my friends in the Hamptons Labor Day Weekend to begin to raise awareness.”
