Children’s Cancer Fund’s 33rd Annual Light It Up Gala brings children, their families, celebrities, researchers, and sponsors together for an unforgettable and heartwarming night. The Gala raises vital funds for local pediatric cancer and care, while serving as a positive experience for children currently undergoing treatment at Children’s Health.
Walking in a fashion show, child participants are escorted by celebrities while wearing outfits of their choice donated by Dillard’s. Guests cheer them on and enjoy live and silent auctions, a raffle drawing, dinner, drinks and dancing. At the Gala, they rejoice in their successes, reflect on their losses and look forward to making childhood cancer a curable disease.
This exciting evening aligns with Children Cancer’s Fund’s vision to create a brighter future for kids with cancer, to invest in innovation, inspire hope and provide resources for compassionate care and to be a movement for a cancer-free tomorrow.
