Last Thursday, 34 hostesses (above) whose lives have been affected by breast cancer gathered at Bettina England's home on Turtle Creek Boulevard for a girls' night out that raised over $40,000 for the Mary Crowley Cancer Research Centers. The second annual event was founded by Heather Underwood, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005. Funds raised from ticket sales and a percentage from vendors went to the centers, one of which is in Baylor Medical Center in Dallas. For more information, visit www.marycrowley.org.
