The event supports the Daviess County Hospital Oncology Patient Assistance Fund, which helps patients with their cancer treatment.
Everyone is welcome to attend.

The event is donation-based with no set fee, encouraging attendees to give what they can to support oncology patients. Donations can be made in cash or by check, and payroll deduction is available for Daviess County Hospital employees.
“Supporting our patients in their battle against cancer is a cause close to our hearts,” said Sharon Mead, RN, OCN, ONN-CG, Daviess Community Hospital Cancer Patient Navigator. “This cookout is a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together, enjoy great food, and contribute to a fund that directly impacts the lives of our oncology patients. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a significant difference.”
The Oncology Patient Assistance Fund assists with transportation, lodging, medication, and nutritional support, ensuring financial barriers do not hinder treatment.
“Join us for a meal, make a donation, and celebrate the community spirit that makes DCH a beacon of hope for so many,” Mead said.
