On Thursday, June 3rd, the NephCure Foundation and the Leading Ladies League hosted an event called "Soiree on the Isle" to raise awareness and funds for kidney disease research in Miami. The event was held at The Gibraltar Restaurant inside of the Grove Isle Hotel & Spa located at Four Grove Isle Drive. During the event, guests sipped on cocktails provided by Bacardi and tasty appetizers by Chef Jeff O’Neill. There was also a special live performance by Brendan O"Hara & The Big Bounce (pictured above) who providing an AMAZING set of songs from their latest album called "Champagne and Apple Juice."

Chanel Caton, Vice President of the Leading Ladies League, along with Kelley Ramer from the NephCure Foundation. All of the proceeds from the event benefited The NephCure Foundation"s mission to exclusively support research seeking a cause and cure for two potentially devastating kidney diseases: Nephrotic Syndrome and Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).

I love how their website actually has a virtual research center with a doctor who walks you through the online directory of recent studies.
