The NoahBRAVE Foundation announces “A Nashville Night for NoahBRAVE,” a fundraising event benefiting families of children with terminal brain cancer. The fundraiser will take place on September 9 from 6-9 p.m. at The Pancake Pantry in Hillsboro Village, located at 1796 21st Avenue South in Nashville.
The inaugural event, which will be held during Childhood Cancer Awareness month, features a live auction, heavy hors d’oeuvres, a performance by ACM New Male Artist of the Year Nate Smith and appearances by Nashville SC’s Taylor Washington, New York Times Best Selling Novelist Karen Kingsbury, and other local Nashville celebrities.
The NoahBRAVE Foundation was created in 2021 to honor the late Noah Evans of Franklin. Noah was diagnosed with a Diffuse Midline Glima (DMG) brain tumor when he was 12 years old. After a 16-month battle, brain surgery and multiple rounds of chemo and radiation, Noah was healed in heaven. His family created the foundation to honor their middle son and support families who are going through the same struggles as the Evans family did.
“When your child receives a terminal diagnosis, all you want to do is focus on making memories,” said Lori Evans, Executive Director of the NoahBRAVE Foundation and Noah’s mother. “Our mission at NoahBRAVE and through this event is to provide support for these families to take care of financial needs so that they can focus on what matters.”
The Pancake Pantry was a favorite of Noah’s. He and his family would often visit the iconic restaurant after his radiation treatments and order his favorite - chocolate chip pancakes.
“We are honored to host this special event at Pancake Pantry,” said Chip Bradley, managing director for the Iconic Restaurant Group/The Pancake Pantry. “The NoahBRAVE Foundation and the Evans family are near to our hearts and we hope you will join us in supporting their cause.”
This event features special celebrity guests ACM New Male Artist of the Year Nate Smith, Nashville SC’s Taylor Washington and other local Nashville celebrities.
