Governing Board

For a major fundraising event such as the Cancer Challenge to be successful, a solid, visionary board of directors is a must. The Cancer Challenge is fortunate in that some of the best leaders in Northwest Arkansas are attracted to the Cancer Challenge and are willing to offer their knowledge, wisdom, and enough elbow grease to ensure the success and growth of the annual event. We are extremely grateful to our Board of Directors.
