Celebrating 12 Years of Little Black Dress!

On Saturday, November 7, 2026, Colors of Cancer celebrated its 12th annual Little Black Dress Gala  at the South Shore Hotel in Bemidji, and what an incredible evening it was! More than 200 ladies gathered for a wonderful night of delicious food, laughter, friendship, exciting prizes, and a shared commitment to supporting our local community.

​

One of the evening's most memorable moments came from the emotional and inspirational stories shared by Kim Lindsey, Marlyn Lund, and Dave LaLone. Their experiences were a powerful reminder of why Colors of Cancer exists and the meaningful difference your generosity makes in the lives of local individuals and families affected by cancer.
