Dear ACCF Friends, 

The Anchor Cross Cancer Foundation (ACCF) will host its 7th Annual Masquerade Ball on the evening of June 13, 2026. Supporters and community members from across the Gulf Coast are invited to help us #MaskCancer for one night at this fundraising event. We will celebrate local cancer patients and survivors while raising funds to help area cancer patients.

Our 2025 event saw a tremendous increase in participation and raised over $75,000, with all of the proceeds benefiting local cancer patients in south Alabama.

We are grateful to our donors and sponsors who supported this event. Because of these partnerships our “party with a purpose” saw great success. Find pictures and a recap of last year’s event on our Facebook page @anchorcrosscancerfoundation.

ACCF is a community-based 501(c)3 nonprofit that provides financial grants to local cancer patients currently in treatment regardless of what kind of cancer they have or where they receive treatment. Cancer treatment often comes with a financial burden. Our mission is to relieve financial stress allowing patients to focus on their health and recovery.

As we plan for the seventh year of our event, we ask you to join us in making this the best Masquerade Ball yet! The attached packet includes information about sponsorship opportunities and in-kind donations. We hope you will join us in “Helping our neighbors focus on their fight” by sponsoring our ball this year.

Please feel free to contact me with questions or to request additional information. o-251.607.5081/m-251.513.0062 

On behalf of the Anchor Cross Cancer Foundation, thank you for your time.
