Champions of Hope
TAKING BACK THE FIGHT
2023 Date and Location TBD
Welcome
Event Details
This year, the American Cancer Society's Milwaukee Champions of Hope Gala will be held on Friday, November 4, 2022.
Join us for a one-of-a-kind evening featuring a live entertainment, a spectacular live and silent auction, an inspiring program, and much more.
The American Cancer Society is working to finish the fight against every cancer in every community. We are the largest private, not-for-profit funder of cancer research in the United States, investing more than $4 billion since 1946. Thanks in part to our contributions, more than 1.5 million lives have been saved in the US in the past two decades.
The future can be free from cancer.
We envision a future where our children will no longer live with the threat of cancer. Unfortunately, that future is at risk.
Throughout the pandemic, the American Cancer Society has been there 24/7 for anxious cancer patients and caregivers, listening to concerns and providing accurate, scientific information about COVID-19 and cancer.
Millions in cancer research could go unfunded. 1.4M calls could go unanswered. Nearly 500K patients could go without a free ride or place to stay while receiving treatment. That is what could be at stake this year alone.
The future can be free from cancer. And that future is in your hands RIGHT NOW.
Please join us in supporting the work of the American Cancer Society.
