Meet Mary Kent and Jeremy Ellis

The second annual Piedmont Oncology Luminaria gala is led by honorary co-chairs Mary Kent and Jeremy Ellis, who have served as philanthropic leaders and champions of Piedmont Oncology.

The Ellises are longtime supporters of Piedmont, investing most recently in the Early Detection Pancreatic Cancer Clinic, as Mary Kent is actively receiving treatment for pancreatic cancer. Jeremy and Mary Kent have three beautiful daughters and are proud to serve in this capacity to inspire support for Piedmont's statewide oncology services.

Piedmont Oncology: Aligning Care with Excellence

From recruitment of leading physicians to growing our research infrastructure and clinical pipeline, Piedmont Oncology seeks to change the future of cancer research and care in partnership with our communities, our partners, and the thousands of patients and caregivers who want to pay it forward by giving back.
