Every pancreatic cancer journey tells a story. A story of courage, resilience, faith, family, friendship, and hope. Behind every diagnosis is a person and a network of loved ones whose lives are forever changed.

An Evening of Hope & Harmony was created to bring together the people of DeSoto County and surrounding communities to increase awareness of pancreatic cancer, provide education, support those impacted by the disease, and advance the mission of the Kosten Foundation.

This special evening will unite survivors, caregivers, healthcare advocates, community leaders, families, and supporters for a meaningful night of connection, inspiration, remembrance, and community impact.

The evening will begin with our Turn & Talk Mocktail Hour, where guests can connect, share experiences, and engage in meaningful conversation. We believe awareness begins with dialogue, and these conversations help build understanding, compassion, and support throughout our community.

As the evening unfolds, we will honor survivors, remember loved ones, share stories of resilience, and celebrate the strength that comes from coming together for a common purpose.
