The Hope Gala - Louisville is the premier fundraising event in our city in which the
mission is to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.

more than 100 years ago for one purpose -
to liberate the world from the threat
against cancer. With focus on research and patient programs, like the Hope Lodge,
ACS has impacted the fight against cancer
in so many ways.
