6th Annual No Show Ball - Chattanooga
The No Show Ball is a play on the truth that most of the fundraisers we participate in are events you have to attend. But on the day of the No Show Ball, the event comes to you in the form of a dinner in a cooler bag dropped off at your door. Dinner inside the cooler will feed 4. Coolers can be purchased for yourself, for someone else as a gift, or for a family in the hospital.
Sponsors
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, please read the letter and levels and download and fill out the form or email Alora Haney at alora@forrestspencefund.org.
Gift a Cooler
Are you looking for the perfect way to show your support or say thank you? Purchasing a cooler is a great way to show someone that you care. Gifted coolers can be anonymous or include a personalized tag. If you are ordering more than one cooler but having them delivered to different addresses, please choose the total number of coolers you are ordering and fill out delivery instructions for each cooler. Send one to a neighbor, teacher, babysitter, grandparent, homebound friend or family, or new parents!
Gift a Cooler to an Erlanger Family
Help us bring smiles to families with a child currently hospitalized at Children's Hospital at Erlanger by purchasing a cooler for them. Choose “Yes - Family at Children’s Hospital at Erlanger” under “Is This a Gift” on the order form. Coolers purchased for hospitalized families will be delivered directly to the child's hospital room on the day of the event. Your hospital cooler purchase will support families during their darkest days.
