Carmel neurologist Dr. Ted Nukes on Wednesday hosted his ninth annual charity event in Carmel, this year benefitting the American Cancer Society. The theme is always a “Jamaican Christmas Party,” and Dr. Nukes solely sponsors the food, beverages, venue, and entertainment. All funds raised go directly to the charity.

The American Cancer Society is an incredible organization providing support for cancer patients and their families, including rides to treatment, medication pickups, free lodging, 24-hour phone help lines, access to clinical trials, and so much more.
The American Cancer Society is on a mission to free the world from cancer. Until they do, they will be funding and conducting research, sharing expert information, supporting patients, and spreading the word about prevention. All so you can live longer – and better.
While most people know them for their research, the American Cancer Society does so much more. They attack cancer from every angle. They promote healthy lifestyles to help you prevent cancer. They research cancer and its causes to find more answers and better treatments. They fight for lifesaving policy changes. They provide everything from emotional support to the latest cancer information for those who have been touched by cancer. And they do it all 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
There were several representatives from American Cancer Society attending the event and they accepted all check, cash, or credit card donations to help those in need.
