Mondays at Racine Cancer Care Foundation hosted its annual fundraiser, The Long Island Beauty Ball, on Monday, Oct. 24 at Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury. 

The event, presented New York Cancer & Blood Specialists and hosted by Newsday TV’s Elisa DiStefano, honored Sheriff Errol D. Toulon, Jr., Suffolk County’s 67th Sheriff and the county’s first African American to be elected to a non-judicial countywide office.

“This year we decided to highlight someone from our community that has really gone above and beyond to support not only our mission but the cancer community on Long Island. Sheriff Toulon is that person,” said Karla Waldron, executive director of Mondays at Racine. “A two-time cancer survivor, we couldn’t have chosen a smarter, stronger, and more compassionate person than the Sheriff as a spokesperson for our Mondays for Men program.”
