Join Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana and the Embassy Theatre for Celebrate Life, a performance headlined by cancer survivor and motivational speaker Heidi Kramer and recording artist, singer-songwriter and pianist Kerri Sherwood at the Embassy Theatre. Together they bring a powerful performance blending original music, stories and song. The program supports and encourages cancer survivors and inspires people to live life to their fullest.

The organization is entirely supported by charitable gifts. In 2006, foundations provided 38% of the budget, individual donations covered 16%, corporations and organizations gave 15%, special event fundraising brought in 11%, United Way gifts amounted to 6% and bequests and interest income generated the final 14% of necessary funds. Last year the agency raised $944,327 to help local people with cancer.

Northeast Indiana is a very generous place. We are fortunate every time a person or group decides they want to make a gift or organize an event for Cancer Services. We depend on every single one of these donations.

We also want to remind people that many employers provide matching donations every time an employee makes gifts to qualified organizations. We have received matching gifts from AON, American Express, Enodis Corporation, GE, ING, Lincoln Financial Group, Safeco Insurance, Verizon. Ask your human relations department if your company offers such a program. Click here to read more about matching donations.
