La Scène: Where It’s At

Young Professionals of Walton County (YPWC) hosted an educational evening benefiting Kindness for Katherine on August 11 at SOWAL House creative studio in Rosemary Beach, Florida. The evening featured a happy hour by Better Together Beverage, sushi from Shaka, and programming about the importance of bone marrow donation with speakers from Be The Match and Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital Emerald Coast. YPWC board member Katherine Green was diagnosed this year with a rare form of blood cancer called myelodysplastic syndrome and recently underwent a bone marrow transplant to prevent acute myeloid leukemia.
