On November 12, Gilda’s Club held their remote annual benefit gala. Emma won the Gilda Radner Award. Emma, whose mother is a breast cancer survivor, dedicated part of her acceptance speech to the services Gilda’s Club provides to young people.

“I was 19 when my mom was diagnosed and the idea of trying to understand that, especially as a little kid … and knowing that at Gilda’s Club, kids can have fun and go to summer camp and enjoy time with other kids who understand what they’re going through is absolutely incredible,” the Oscar winner said.

Congratulations Emma!
