A Final Toast and Celebration for Bite Me Cancer!
This year, it will be less about fundraising and more about gratitude. However, funds raised at the dinner will still be applied to our mission to support teenagers with cancer. Our new college scholarship program for teens with cancer will be expanded for the 2027 application process (kicking off in 12/2026) and even beyond 2027 through a few partnership opportunities that we will share at the wine dinner. With your help, we can still do more as we go through the closing of the foundation. We hope you can join us as we celebrate our achievements over 16 years and also thank our guests for their dedication and support - the final toast!
You can make a purchase now for a sponsorship or tickets! Sponsors will be displayed in the list below.
If you can't attend as we get closer to the date, we can donate your seats to parents of teenagers with cancer and other cancer survivors so they can enjoy an evening out.
