Time is running out to be part of an unforgettable evening that changes lives.
On Saturday, July 25, the 24th Annual Goombay Bash returns to the Aon Grand Ballroom at Navy Pier, bringing together an incredible night of entertainment, inspiring stories, and a community united in the fight against cancer. Hosted by The H Foundation, a nonprofit proudly based in La Grange, Goombay Bash has become one of Chicagoland’s signature fundraising events while supporting groundbreaking cancer research at the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University.
More Than a Fundraiser
What began in 2001 as a small group of friends honoring loved ones lost to cancer has grown into a movement. Over the past two decades, The H Foundation has raised millions of dollars for basic science cancer research—investing in the discoveries that can lead to tomorrow’s breakthroughs. The organization’s focus has always been simple: fund innovative research that has the potential to impact countless families facing cancer.
As H Foundation leaders recently shared on the Light Bulb Moments podcast, the organization has always believed in maximizing the impact of every dollar raised. That commitment has helped transform a grassroots effort into one of the region’s most successful cancer fundraising organizations.
An Evening You Won’t Forget
This year’s Goombay Bash features an appearance by Gary Sinise as Celebrity Guest of Honor. The acclaimed actor, humanitarian, and Chicago native will share his family’s deeply personal experience with cancer, along with reflections from his remarkable career and life of service. Each attendee will also receive a copy of his upcoming book, Graceful Warrior, honoring his late son, Mac.
The evening also includes exceptional dining, entertainment, live and silent auctions, raffles, and the opportunity to stand alongside hundreds of supporters committed to advancing cancer research. It’s an event that blends celebration, hope, and purpose in a way few fundraisers can.
