The Cattlemen’s Ball — hosted by a different Nebraska ranch or feedlot every year — raises money for cancer research at the UNMC Eppley Cancer Center, showcases rural Nebraska and promotes beef as part of a healthy diet.
Since its inception, the Cattlemen’s Ball has raised more than $3.7 million. In addition to providing funds to the UNMC Eppley Cancer Center, a portion of the funds also is targeted for local health care organizations.
