We are still on cloud 9 from the energy at last night's 9th Annual Daddy Daughter Dance! It was our most triumphant success yet, and we couldn't have achieved it without the efforts of so many dedicated individuals. A heartfelt shoutout to our generous sponsors, selfless volunteers, and every single person who purchased a ticket. Your unwavering support enables Daughters for Dads to courageously help families combat cancer and provide vital assistance to families in need. The dance is our primary fundraiser that empowers our organization throughout the year. We shared laughter, we danced with joy, and WE collectively made a profound difference. Thank you for joining us and helping us give back to families bravely fighting cancer! Please support these local businesses who wholeheartedly support our mission. Many of our loyal sponsors have stood by us since the very first dance!

We cherish our relationship with Cancer Services of ENC and just think the world of Maria. We share the bond of being daddy‘s girls and losing them to cancer. Congratulations Maria on your new role, they are lucky to have you!

Exciting news! Maria Cullipher joins the staff of Cancer Services of Eastern NC after four years on the Board of Directors, including two as Treasurer. Her dedication to the organization began when her father faced pancreatic cancer, an experience that showed her how vital financial and emotional support is for families. Maria lives in Grimesland with her husband, Ron, and their two daughters, and also works as a medical coder. She is grateful for the opportunity to give back and support cancer patients across Eastern NC.
Proud to have you on board!

Asking all of our Daughters for Dads prayer warriors to please add sweet Lea to your prayer list. Her precious life has been completely rocked with a leukemia diagnosis a few weeks ago and then last night she suffered a stroke and was airlifted back to the children’s hospital. Please also pray specific prayers for her doctors, for healing and for her family. It’s always horrible to hear of a diagnosis but even more heart wrenching when it’s a child and not to mention she and her dad have been staples at every D4D Daddy Daughter Dance helping us help others fight cancer. It’s our time to help their family and the biggest way right now is prayers and we thank you in advance. We love you Lauren, Willis, Oakley and especially you Lea!!!!! 🙏🏼
