Duane Chaney introduces his niece Madisen Abramson to the guests assembled at the Madisen’s Match Gala Auction Dinner held in the Main Deck of the Helm Club on Friday, March 13, 2026. Ms. Abramson, now age 21, was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor at the age of four. Her uncle founded this event in 2009 to raise funds for pediatric cancer treatment at Golisano Children’s Hospital in Fort Myers. This event this year raised more than $140,000 and has donated more than $1.8 million dollars to the cause thus far.
