The 2024 Hope Ball, a bi-annual black-tie dinner and dancing event hosted by local nonprofit Neighborhood Cancer Connection, raised over $704,000.
Held April 26 at The 405 Venue, the fundraiser was attended by 522 guests and over 44 sponsors, and included a three-course catered meal by Table 301 and live music by the Atlanta Party Fanatics.
“Events like these are vital for a local charity like ours and the cancer patients who depend on us,” said Angela Green, chair of the Hope Ball. “Over the past 10 years, the Hope Ball has raised over 3 million dollars to help cancer patients and their families in Greenville. We can’t wait to do it all again in April 2026.”
The first Hope Ball was held in 1984 and proceeds from each fundraiser have helped over 2,000 cancer patients and their families by supporting the Neighborhood Cancer Connections programs such as financial aid, counseling, nutrition and equipment to support local cancer patients.
