American Cancer Society Big Dig Provides Day Of Fun For Children
Omaha, NE – Sunday, September 11, 2022, the Omaha Metro community will have the opportunity to explore excavators, backhoes, scissor lifts and many other pieces of large equipment at the Big Dig, an event that supports the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge Nebraska located in Omaha. The event will run from 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM at the site on Hwy 370 & 150th Street. This event is free and open to the public.
“We are thrilled to partner with the American Cancer Society for the fifth annual Big Dig event in Omaha! This event is sure to be full of excitement for children of all ages,” said Ron Weis, Vice President of Pre-Construction for Lueder Construction. “This event is a fantastic opportunity to raise money for a great cause, and is one small way we can all give back to the families who must travel to Omaha to receive their lifesaving cancer care.”
Treating a cancer patient close to home is always the first choice, but it’s not always possible. For many, the best chance of survival requires specialized treatment or more extensive care far from home. When travel becomes necessary, many wonder if it can be physically and
emotionally endured, or if it’s financially feasible. For some, it can become a barrier to survival. This is why the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge program is so important.
