We encourage you to organize your own fundraising event and donate the proceeds to Cancer Support Community! These types of events are sometimes called third-party fundraisers. They are an effective, fun and efficient way to improve the lives of people with cancer.
Whether it’s a volleyball tournament, a fashion show or a dance party event, the key is to choose an event you can get excited about. This will look a little different for each person, but we’re here to help bring your ideas to life and give you the tools to be successful.
For tools and resources for Hosting a Third Party Fundraiser, please contact Debbie at dbeyer@cancersupportohio.org or 614-884-4673.

Roast of Skip Weiler
Friends, family members, and colleagues came together in 2011 to honor and crack a few jokes about Skip Weiler. This comedy roast was a chance to pay tribute to a tireless advocate of Cancer Support Community Central Ohio and one of the area’s most committed business leaders. It also raised $90,000 to support CSC’s programs!
