The Connecticut Sports Foundation, based in Old Saybrook, was founded in 1987 by New London native John Ellis, a former major league catcher and a cancer survivor. The Sports Foundation's mission is to financially assist Connecticut's cancer patients and their families and to fund cancer research.

The foundation has granted more than $3.5 million to over 4,000 families with financial hardships related to a cancer diagnosis and has donated more than $1.5 million to support cancer research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

Corporate sponsorships are available for the dinner, along with individual tickets at $1,000. For more information, visit www.sportsfoundation.org or contact executive director Jane G. Ellis at (860) 388-0788.
