Wendy Raquel Robinson, actress and American Cancer Society Ambassador, hosted dynamic performances by Jonathan Nelson, Maurette Brown Clark, Patrick Lundy and the Ministers of Music, and Dottie Peoples. The virtual show also included inspirational messages delivered by special guests from across the nation.
