To our dearest friends, partners, and Celebrity Steak-Out guests,
Every year, we are deeply touched by the overwhelming support we receive from our community for Celebrity Steak-Out. The work that Fred Hutch does is truly groundbreaking, and it’s one of our greatest joys to bring people together with us to raise money to support them and their mission. Your participation in that has been a source of strength and inspiration for us since we began in 2010.
As many of you know, Brad was diagnosed with cancer in June 2024, and quickly after started radiation and chemotherapy treatment. His early diagnosis and incredible care would not have been possible without the unmatched network of doctors and specialists that we saw through Fred Hutch. Though treatment is over and Brad’s prognosis is outstanding, we’ve found ourselves deeper in recovery mode than we anticipated.
We had been hopeful that August 20th would give us enough time between treatment and our favorite event of the year, but the truth is that Brad needs more rest. And while we can’t imagine not coming together with you all in a few weeks, it’s become clear that the best decision at this time is to take a break this year and come back stronger than ever in 2025.
Our events team will be processing refunds for anyone who sponsored, purchased tickets, or made donations to this year's event. If you’d like to continue supporting Celebrity Steak-Out and Fred Hutch this year, please reply directly to this email or visit this special link to donate in honor of Celebrity Steak-Out.
If you have any additional questions, please reply directly to this email or contact Libby Sundgren at libbysundgren@gmail.com.
We can feel the love from each of you, every day—thank you for all of the well wishes, good thoughts, and prayers. We can’t wait to come together again next year!
Amy & Brad Brotherton
