MILWAUKEE - Pasta Fest is a labor love for the Women for MACC--A group of mothers, siblings and relatives of children who battle childhood cancer.

This is the 28th year for Pasta Fest at Serb Hall.  Hundreds showed up for some great food.  All proceeds benefit pediatric cancer research.  TODAY'S TMJ4's Charles Benson, Vince Vitrano, and Nick Montes helped serve food.

Erin Harang is with Woman for MACC.  She explains, "In some cases the kids going through treatment--that treatment was only found a year before.  It directly impacts families being diagnosed with it right now."

Since Pasta Fest was founded, more than $4 million has gone to support pediatric cancer research.
