  • DBCC’s Lights of Life Gala is a celebration of life and giving, made possible by the generous support of our community. By becoming a sponsor or donating to our auctions, you'll not only elevate your brand at one of Delaware's premier fundraising events but also directly support survivors and families affected by breast cancer.

    Your support is vital in generating the critical funding needed to sustain DBCC’s life-saving survivorship support and education programs. Our auctions will feature dazzling items—from luxury getaways and sparkling jewelry to sports experiences, fine dining, and more—all generously donated by community partners.

    Funds raised will sustain DBCC's critical programs, including survivorship support groups, outreach education, transportation, interpretation, and other services that provide hope and healing to our community. We invite you to join us in celebrating survivorship, honoring those we've lost, and standing strong in the fight against breast cancer.

    Let's round up generosity, hope, and strength together.

    Attire: Cocktail — Dust off your boots and show off your sparkle!

In Support of Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition
The Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition (DBCC) is a 501(c)(3) staffed by a combined number of 25 full-time and part-time employees and has an office serving citizens in each of the three counties in Delaware – New Castle, Kent, and Sussex. 

DBCC has developed and implemented programs tailored to the unique needs of different populations, including young women with breast cancer, African-American women, Latinas, lesbians, and women with disabilities. DBCC has trained healthcare providers who implement culturally competent care and has conducted many educational sessions for the general public in partnership with corporate and community organizations.

In addition, DBCC has referred and navigated thousands of uninsured adults for free and low-cost cancer screenings and has removed barriers to cancer screenings and treatment by providing interpretation, transportation, and support services. 

As a member of the National Breast Cancer Coalition, represented on its board of directors, DBCC has worked to support the national organization’s efforts to research the causes of breast cancer and pursue optimal treatments and cures.

The vision of the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition is to create a caring community where barriers to breast cancer screenings are removed and all persons at risk served by DBCC have access to quality care and treatment. DBCC will ensure each individual diagnosed receives resources to become a thriving survivor, armed with the knowledge and support needed to conquer this disease.
