Jill Vanuch's 14th Annual Dance for Breast Cancer

Although our giving page is no longer active, you can still donate. If you would like to provide any additional support, please make a gift here.

It's time for our annual ladies-only dance! This dance is a way to promote breast cancer awareness and raise funds that give back to a cause Jill was so passionate about. We hope you'll continue to support The Jill Vanuch Breast Cancer Research Endowment Fund, which was created as a way to honor Jill's legacy while still raising money for breast cancer research. We are SO close to our $100k goal. THIS IS OUR YEAR! If you can't make it to the dance in person, this page is a great way to contribute.

ABOUT ENDOWMENT FUNDS

An endowment fund is a restricted fund - meaning only a portion of the interest earned from the dollars in the fund can be spent, not the principal that anchors the endowment. As the fund is accruing interest, the money in the fund will continue to accumulate (as only a small portion of the interest will be used). With this style of fund, the dollars will never run out, and the Jill Vanuch Endowment Fund will live on forever in her memory!

The creation of this fund is something that will make a lifelong impact to breast cancer patients and families; it may help fund new pieces of technology or equipment for better breast cancer care, create further advancements in breast cancer research, help provide physician education and training, provide genetic testing and counseling to patients and enable us to provide better support to them as well. We hope that with the creation of the Jill Vanuch Endowment Fund for Breast Cancer Research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center - Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC - James), it will get us one step closer to creating a cancer-free world!

Thank you for your support!
