The Hope Ball returns to Greenville, sets $750K fundraising goal
The Hope Ball, a biannual event hosted by the local nonprofit Neighborhood Cancer Connection, will return to Greenville on April 26. The event, which will run from 6:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. at The 405 Venue, aims to raise funds to support local cancer patients and their families.
A Night of Purpose and Community
The Hope Ball is a longstanding tradition in Greenville, with the first event being held in 1984. Each Hope Ball has played a crucial role in funding Neighborhood Cancer Connection’s programs, which include providing financial aid, counseling, nutrition support, and equipment for cancer patients in the local community.
Hope Ball Chairperson Brandi Ariail expressed the significance of the event, stating, “So many of us are affected by cancer. The Hope Ball will be an evening filled with laughter, camaraderie, and a sense of purpose that will resonate far beyond the night’s festivities.”
The event will feature a three-course menu catered by Table 301 and live music by the Atlanta Party Fanatics. Attendees can look forward to a night of entertainment while making a meaningful impact on the lives of those battling cancer.
Setting a Fundraising Goal
In 2022, the Hope Ball raised an impressive $675,000 for Neighborhood Cancer Connection. This year, event organizers have set a fundraising goal of $750,000, with hopes of surpassing the previous record and further supporting the nonprofit’s essential services for cancer patients.
