It was a good afternoon to be at Noble Park with Angela Kendall as she got to meet Halley a childhood cancer survivor and her mother, Kate Cruise, daddy Craig and her siblings.

Angela will be in the 7th Annual Dancing for Gold®️Gala on Saturday, March 20, 2027, at the Paducah Convention Center.

We are believing this is going to be the best event to date.

This group of dancers and pro-instructors knocked it out of the park for the 6th Annual Dancing for Gold®️gala. They raised funds to help Book for Hope, a childhood cancer organization be able to pay bills at home for Kentucky, northern TN, and southern IL families with a child in a cancer battle. We will always be grateful for the impact made by this group coming together so we can pay more rent/mortgage payments, vehicle payments,vehicle insurance, and all bills at home for childhood cancer families. They have enabled us to be able to repair vehicles to keep them on the road traveling to cancer treatment, repair appliances, and all types of emergency situations. Also, they raised money for medical equipment not covered by insurance and prescriptions denied by an insurance company. Devastatingly, some children do not survive cancer and we will continue to be able to help pay for funerals for these little warriors. Last, Book for Hope has always given to specific childhood cancer trials. To date, we have given over $500,000.00 to pediatric cancer trials. Thank you to everyone who gave a dollar because it all adds up to potentially saving the life of a child, and keeping a childhood cancer family from losing everything they ever worked for in their entire life.
We will never forget you!

Yes, we are still sharing pictures of people who joined in the fight to help pay bills at home for children going through cancer treatment. Also, a portion of the funds goes to a specific type of a pediatric cancer trial. We will forever be grateful for your service to children fighting battles they never signed up for.
