Thank you for your interest in Curefest Rock Against Cancer Fundraiser!  This is our second time hosting Curefest and we are excited to help organize a great event for an even greater cause.  As the lead singer/guitar player for the band Half Nelson as well as a cancer survivor, this event holds very dear to my heart.  All proceeds will go toward the V foundation with the hope of beating our previous year’s contribution of $12,000.  Please consider donating directly through this page or even attending this wonderful event which will include live music, DJ, dancing, finger foods, and cash bar.
