City of Hope was founded in 1913, with the mission to make hope a reality for all touched by cancer and diabetes. 

Susan told HELLO! before the event: “I have to acknowledge how prestigious it really is to receive this award from The City of Hope. I know the list of former recipients and I’m very honored to be in their presence. And also, my goodness, it’s very humbling. 

“You just go along in your life and try to do the best you can, but to be acknowledged by the City of Hope for contributions to women’s health is just more than I could have ever expected or hoped for. And so I’m very, very honored indeed to accept this award.”
