The American Cancer Society invites you to the 17th annual Night of Hope Gala: Glamour at the Manor, held on Friday, October 30, 2026, at the Tulalip Resort Casino. Step into an enchanting evening where timeless glamour meets the mystique of an old manor—complete with elevated dining, craft cocktails, captivating entertainment, and extraordinary auction experiences.
This unforgettable night fuels the American Cancer Society’s life-saving work. Today, 70% of people are surviving at least five years after a cancer diagnosis, and 4.8 million lives have been saved due to a 34% decline in cancer mortality since 1991. More people are also living longer after diagnoses of myeloma, liver, lung, and rectal cancers. Yet, rates continue to rise for several common cancers—including breast, prostate, liver, melanoma, oral cavity, pancreas, and uterine cancers, making ACS’s programs, research, and patient services more essential than ever.
Join us for a night where glamour & fun becomes impact and where every bid, every moment, and every act of generosity helps create a world where no one faces cancer alone.

Leadership
Since 1946, the American Cancer Society has supported researchers at pivotal points in their career – to give them the support they need to keep great research going or to take their ideas from dream to reality. The American Cancer Society is proud to have helped more than 24,000 investigators make important advances in prevention, early detection, treatment, and care for those with cancer. In fact, 50 of those investigators have gone on to win the Nobel Prize, considered the highest accolade any scientist can receive. As the largest private not-for-profit, non-governmental funder of cancer research in the US, the American Cancer Society has played a role in many of the major cancer research breakthroughs of the last century.
