Heath and his wife Katie hosted the event last night at Bossa Nova (see Oct. 12th news below). It was sponsored through A Glimmer of Hope and proceeds benefited the Under Forty Breast Cancer Study.


Some of their guests included teammates Brett Keisel, Hines Ward, James Farrior, Keyaron Fox, Matt Spaeth, Jeff Reed, Max Starks and Ben!

From Steelers.com today:

“Anything we can do for this cause, to raise awareness and money, we will do,” said Ben Roethlisberger. “It affects so many lives and we want to help. I am all for it. I wear the pink shoes in practice and the game. This month is a great time for us to show our support and raise money for a sad disease.”
