Tickets Still Available to MAYF Summer Bash for Childhood Cancer

Metro Area Youth Foundation is hosting its 10th Annual Summer Bash for Childhood Cancer (www.summerbashforccc.org) on August 27th at Ramada Inn on 72nd and Grover Street.  Tickets are still available for purchase for their annual fundraising event this year.  The theme will be Jungle/Zoo for the event which will include dinner and auctions, with the proceeds to benefit families who have children with cancer by providing financial assistance directly to the families in need as well as local hospitals and camps.  Guest speakers will be Ambassador Alexandro and Honorary Chairs Dr. Lee and Marie Simmons.

The Metro Area Youth Foundation (MAYF) was formed by a group of Omaha area Optimist Club members who wanted to do more for families and children experiencing cancer. In the past two years alone, MAYF has been able to provide over 90 local families a chance to keep the water and power on, rent to stay in their apartment, a mortgage payment to keep their home and a chance to keep life as stable and normal as possible. For more information about how you can get involved or donate to MAYF’s Childhood Cancer Campaign, please call (402) 740-5158 or visit www.summerbashforccc.org. Don’t forget to also support the mission of the Metro Area Youth Foundation on May 25th during Omaha Gives!
