April is cancer awareness month, and the Houston branch of the Cancer Society is planning an Italian dinner fundraiser June 1.

Instead of a local Relay for Life, the Houston cancer society branch is organizing a fundraising Italian spaghetti night June 1. There will be vegan and gluten-free options, dessert by donation and free dessert for people in yellow shirts. There will also be a silent auction.
