Event Description
Brought to you by Beats for a Cure:
Beats for a Cure is a non-profit organization that uses music to raise funds to fight various types of cancers. The initial goal was to aid breast cancer research and support, but has grown to assist not only breast cancer, but prostate, multiple myeloma, and for this event, childhood cancer.
Funds raised will go to University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children Hospital. With your support we can help find a cure. Beats for a Cure: Battling Cancer Through Music. https://www.beatsforacure.org/
