Dance To The Beat 2025
Benefits: The Jennie Edmundson Foundation
Location: The Mid-America Center
— jehfoundation.org
The Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital’s annual cardiovascular fundraiser, Dance to the Beat, will make the cold night warmer through dance. The concert and night of dancing raises funds for the cardiovascular patients at the hospital. The money raised will work to take the financial burden off of the patients so they can focus on rest, healing, and family. The music is local, and the night includes a cash bar and appetizers, as well as a silent auction and raffle prizes. With February being Heart Month, bring your friends and family to dance the night away for cardiovascular health conditions—the leading cause of death in the United States.
