4th Annual “All Heart Prom”
The All Heart Gunner Foundation invites the Knoxville community to support the 4th Annual “All Heart Prom” beginning at 7 p.m., May 3, at Bridgewater Place. This charity event will take place beginning at 7 p.m. and aims to raise funds to provide direct financial relief to families battling pediatric brain cancer.
Tickets for the All Heart Prom are available at $150 per couple or $85 per individual online at allheartgunner.com VIP tickets, which include a bar pass for the host bar, are $160 per individual or $300 per couple.
The All Heart Prom brings together local professionals and community members for a memorable evening of fun and philanthropy. Ticket sales, a silent auction and the highly anticipated Prom King/Queen competition all contribute to raising funds for families with children fighting brain cancer.
The charity gives these families a check for $3,300 to use at their discretion — whether for essential needs or something special to create lasting memories during a difficult time.
Founded in honor of Gunner Smith, a local child who passed away from brain cancer in 2021, the All Heart Gunner Foundation has helped 33 families so far and has distributed more than $100,000.
The event will feature a deejay, lighthearted speeches and a chance to mingle with community leaders who are dedicated to the cause.
