Spirit of Courage Gala
August 3, 2024
Since 2003, our annual Spirit of Courage events have raised over $2 million. One hundred percent of the proceeds are donated to the Spirit of Courage Cancer Center Charitable Patient Care Fund, which assists uninsured and underinsured patients who need help covering expenses associated with the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. This fund assists patients by paying for medications, treatments, and deductibles, as well as everyday living expenses such as groceries, rent, and gas. Without this type of financial help, many vulnerable members of our community would need to forgo vital treatments and/or medications.

Each year, we celebrate and honor four individuals who join us and share their stories of courage during their battles with cancer. Last year, on August 4-5, 2023, we honored Rita Epperson, Brent Malskeit, Fran Shorey and Marlene Turner.
