The annual Filling the Gap SnowBall fundraiser is scheduled for 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday in the Alerus Center in Grand Forks.
Filling the Gap is a program started by Gap Inc. employee Sarah Heitkamp of Grand Forks. The goal of the program is to raise money to help with the cost of cancer treatment for the patients at Altru Cancer Center in Grand Forks. It helps patients pay for lodging when in extended treatment, travel expenses and nutritional needs.
The Filling the Gap SnowBall requires no entrance fee, only a freewill offering. The event includes a social hour, short program, meal, dance, craft and art sale and a silent auction. The auction features many items from Sioux gear to jewelry and photography, among many others.
