Members janea4old Posted May 6, 2024 Members Share Posted May 6, 2024 Just to put everything on one thread: Nancy interviewed by SOD March 13, 2024 https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/general-hospitals-nancy-lee-grahn-alexis-on-her-star-studded-fundraiser/ Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis, GH) has been hard at work planning a star-studded ALS fundraiser that will take place on May 4 in Glendale, CA. “This is going to be a really classy event for ALS, where all monies are going to ALS,” begins Grahn. “It’s crossing over to all the soaps, so we have big players from all the soaps coming.” While ALS factors into Grahn’s current on-air life as Alexis, whose friend and colleague, Gregory, is battling the disease, the cause is actually close to Grahn’s heart for a different reason. “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference. I thought, ‘We should gather together, have a fun day and night, and raise money!’ It’s called Daytime Unites, and it’s my hope that we do it again next year for another meaningful, underfunded cause.” The event will feature not only opportunities to mix and mingle with the stars, “a really fun panel with the actors with some games and autographs, but a concert, as well,” the actress reports. “It should be a really fun event. It starts at one and will probably go until about nine or 10 at night. We need to sell lots of tickets and every penny is a tax deduction and will go to ALS,” she stresses. ______________ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members janea4old Posted May 6, 2024 Members Share Posted May 6, 2024 (edited) They had several fundraising methods. 1) buy a ticket to the event. 2) donate to ALS One via the event website. 3) donate something to the silent auction or buy something from the silent auction. edit to add: 4) items donated for the raffle, attendees purchasing raffle tickets. These are the items and opportunities available at the auction. The auction might be closed now but you can still see the listings https://live.classy.org/auction/new-event/05132560-5958-4aa6-8bf3-7c25f4f4b882 Items included a Y&R signed script from Victor and Nikki's 1984 wedding. a B&B signed script from (not sure, but I think it says episode 3921). Special lunches or zoom events with a few actors, including Thorsten Kaye, Kathkleen Gati, Wally Kurth, Cameron Mathison. Hats, coffee cups, etc. signed by actors. set tours of B&B and Y&R Photos signed by actors _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________ Updating this post much later on, with more info: Actually I think there were lots more items; but the ones that were sold earlier are no longer showing on the list. . At one point, I could see a bids page, listing actual names or "anonymous" ... with those who had won a bid paying X amount at the auction. In some cases, I saw that people had bid hundreds of dollars or a thousand dollars for something (but it didn't say what they bid for). -------------- One item was donated by a fan: The fan painted watercolors of GH characters. EDIT - These watercolor prints were prizes for raffle tickets purchased at the event. Edited May 7, 2024 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
