CATTLE BARON’S BALL OF SOUTHWEST MISSOURI

2024 Event Chairs

We do not know a family who is untouched by the ravages of cancer. Ours is no exception.

The beauty of an event like the Cattle Baron’s Ball is that your donation touches so many of the facets in the battle with cancer. It touches research to support a cure. It touches support for those in various stages of treatment. It touches the family members who battle alongside their loved-ones in the daily struggle. It aids survivors in their new reality. Donations to the American Cancer Society cover it all. We love that and that is why we are proud to support this event.

Close to home, we have struggled with the death of Mary’s father to cancer. We still pray daily for dear friends in various stages of treatment and lift up those in our lives who have come out on the other side. We remember that one in eight women in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime and between 250,000 and 300,000 women will be diagnosed with it each year making it the most common cancer in American women. We continue to be struck that lung and bronchus cancer are still the most common cancers for all Americans taking about 125,000 lives each year.

The elimination of cancer in our lifetime remains our goal, and we thank you for considering a sponsorship of the 2024 Cattle Baron’s Ball of Southwest Missouri. You and your guests will experience an amazing evening. Best of all, while you are enjoying yourselves, your sponsorship dollars go to a great effort and a great cause.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you,
Mary & Jeff Schrag
