Vines for Life

Vines for Life was formed in the spring of 2010 when three Geist Cancer Charities - Creating Hope, Indy SurviveOars Dragon Boat Team and Team Luke - joined forces to raise awareness and hope for those living with cancer. Our event features fine wine, craft beer, spirits, gourmet food, music, a charity boutique and a live auction. Over the last eight years, we have raised nearly $200,000 for the three local charities!
