The Heartland Cancer Foundation (HCF, www.heartlandcancerfoundation.org) is asking the community to support their mission by joining them on Saturday, March 4 for the 8th Annual Mardi Gras Gala at the Lincoln Marriott Cornhusker Hotel. This is HCF’s largest annual fundraiser and raises critical funds to support cancer patients in Nebraska.

This incredible evening will feature interactive audience entertainment, a silent auction, live auction, bourbon pull, delicious food, and lively Mardi Gras flair! Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind opportunity for you and your team to attend a spectacular event and make a difference for local cancer patients. Tickets and tables can be secured at heartlandcancerfoundation.org.

More than 11,000 Nebraskans will be diagnosed with cancer this year. HCF believes that no cancer patient should fall behind on treatment because they struggle to afford their everyday expenses.

Heartland Cancer Foundation’s mission is to provide practical and immediate financial assistance to eligible cancer patients in the community so they can focus on what matters most: healing. HCF aspires to provide compassion and hope and remove barriers to care by covering home, auto, and utility costs for local cancer patients in need of additional support during their treatment journey. This practical aid makes a big difference for people who are struggling with both a cancer diagnosis and financial hardship. Thank you to the Heartland Cancer Foundation’s wonderful circle of donors and supporters that come together to care for those in our community.
