Cast for a Cure nets $10,000 to support Beebe oncology patients

For the 12th consecutive year,  the Cast for a Cure Surf Fishing Tournament has generated funds that will ultimately benefit patients undergoing cancer treatment at Beebe Healthcare.

Tournament organizers recently presented a check in the amount of $10,000 to Beebe Medical Foundation to support the hospital’s Cancer Patient Special Needs Fund. The fund supports local cancer patients with limited financial means and aims to offset some of the costs associated with their living expenses.

“The event has grown into something really special,” said Brandy Timmons, a member of the Cast for a Cure planning committee. “It’s about more than fishing; it’s about doing something we love while giving back to the people in our community. We’re proud to support Beebe’s oncology patients in this way.” 

The tournament is held annually at Fenwick Island State Park beach.
