Colleges Against Cancer, a student organization at St. Norbert College, will be hosting the first "Hope Dinner" on Sunday, Feb. 11, at 5 p.m. in Michels Ballroom on the college campus. Pre-registration is required. Tickets may be purchased at http://www.snc.edu/go/hopedinner. Tickets are $50 per person and include, a plated dinner, dessert and access to a silent auction. Student members will also give testimonials about their time in the organization and what it means to them personally. All are welcome.

The funds raised at this event will be used to support and empower the students in their on-and off-campus initiatives regarding cancer, enabling them to continue outreach with cancer patients and their families in the local community. Over the past two years, this student-run organization at St. Norbert College has increased its outreach by delivering cards, blankets, and other items to Bellin Health and St. Vincent Hospital.

Colleges Against Cancer at St. Norbert College was formed in 2004. It is a collaboration of students, faculty and staff who are dedicated to increasing awareness of cancer and supporting cancer patients, survivors, caregivers and their families. Its primary goals include: bringing the St. Norbert College community together to learn about cancer; fundraise for local and national cancer awareness and research initiatives; and ensure that the community has the support it needs relating to cancer.
