Blue Hope Bash Indianapolis

Event information

The Blue Hope Bash Indianapolis is part of a premier Colorectal Cancer Alliance fundraising series, the leading charity gala for colorectal cancer prevention, support, and research in the world. These events occur in cities across the country and are organized by dedicated volunteers local to the host city. The Bashes highlight our collective dedication and resolve to end this disease. It stands to transform the paths taken by patients and caregivers by inspiring greater support and more powerful resources.

Special thanks

Thank you to everyone who supported the Blue Hope Bash Indianapolis in 2023! Our Indy-area allies enjoyed an unforgettable evening at the beautiful Ritz Charles Carmel. Guests enjoyed a cocktail reception, dinner, a lively program, and a silent auction. We are thrilled to announce that the event raised more than $320,000. This will significantly impact the colorectal cancer community, including continuing our efforts to educate the public about the importance of early detection and screening, providing support to those affected by colorectal cancer, and funding critical research to improve treatment options and find a cure. By working together, we can end colorectal cancer in our lifetime.
