Hoops for the Cure set for Feb. 16 | Community Spirit

For the eleventh consecutive year, the University of Evansville Lady Aces and the Evansville Tri-State Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure are teaming up to help raise funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer with the annual Hoops for the Cure. 

This year’s event will take place on Saturday, February 16 at 5:00 pm following the men’s game at 2:00 pm at the Ford Center.  All tickets will be discounted to the price of $5.00 and are now available at the Carson Center at the University of Evansville.  Silent and Chinese auctions will take place and also be available during the men’s game.

Monies raised from the event provide funding for local breast health education, screening, treatment and support programs in addition to supporting Komen’s Award and Research Grant Program.  The Lady Aces have raised over $55,000 these last ten years
