In a touching display of compassion and unity, our community came together for the "Show the Light in Your Heart" fundraiser to combat cancer. We are thrilled to announce that our joint efforts have yielded remarkable results!
THE TOTAL AMOUNT RAISED = $75,504+
CELEBRATING AN INCREDIBLE MILESTONE
We owe this remarkable achievement to the steadfast dedication of our volunteers, the kindness of our donors, and the tireless efforts of all who took part. Every dollar contributed brings us closer to a future where cancer poses no threat.
SUPPORTING LOCAL CANCER PATIENTS
These funds will be directly utilized to assist local cancer patients, guaranteeing that those affected by cancer receive the care and resources they truly deserve.
We want to extend our sincere gratitude to each of you for joining us in support of such a meaningful cause. We feel incredibly fortunate to be part of a community filled with generous individuals, businesses, and organizations. Without your ongoing support, our program would not be able to assist local cancer patients.
We'd also like to say thank you to the Chadron State College Ladies Basketball Team for helping with the food and our auction, the Chadron State College Football Team for helping with set up and tear down. We appreciate all you do to help us and support a great cause!
We also want to thank our community volunteers who helped assemble items, set up, tear down, and helped in the kitchen.
We also want to thank all the employees who graciously donated their time or furnished desserts.
Thank you once again,
Jodi, Brenda, Tricia, Jean, Mitzi and Jacci
Special Thanks to our donors listed below!
Thank you to all of our amazing Donors.
Without all of you who donate or come to this event,
we would not be able to continue supporting area cancer patients.
We are sorry if we missed you on this list!
But a huge Thank You from Us to You!
Jodi, Mitzi, Jean, Brenda, Tricia & Jacci
