Thank you to United Way of Ellis County for recognizing the Cancer Council of Ellis County as we celebrate 40 years of serving our community. 💙

For four decades, we've been honored to walk alongside local individuals and families facing cancer, providing financial assistance, nutrition support, education, and hope when it's needed most.

This milestone wouldn't be possible without the generosity of our donors, volunteers, community partners, and organizations like United Way that believe in our mission. Thank you for helping us continue to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors.

Here's to 40 years of compassion—and many more to come. 💙

Join us at The Hays Larks baseball game tonight for Stand Up To Cancer Night!

Stand Up To Cancer Night & Big Brothers Big Sisters Night! 🩷👧🧒

Tonight at Larks Park, we come together to honor all those who have been impacted by cancer and recognize the Littles of Kansas Big Brothers Big Sisters serving Ellis County. Be sure to pick up a Stand Up 2 Cancer sign to honor a friend or loved one impacted by cancer.

Earlier today, the Littles spent the morning playing putt-putt with the Larks thanks to Precision Valley Golf and Bike Center! The kids also enjoyed lunch provided by Pizza Hut. Littles will be recognized on the field before tonight’s game. ⛳️

First pitch is at 7 PM! ⚾️💙❤️

Thank you to tonight’s game sponsors: Cancer Council of Ellis County, Pioneer Hi-Bred, First Care Clinic, and Messiah Lutheran Church!
