Pearl Honorees

Why Participate as a Pearl Honoree

Pearl Honorees are a distinguished group of Houston’s emerging leaders who are determined to raise awareness and money to support our mission to end cancer as we know it, for
everyone.

The American Cancer Society will have the pleasure of honoring you at Meet the Pearls in October, and at Shuck
Cancer on November 13, 2025 where the top three Pearls will be recognized for their outstanding fundraising efforts.
