Join us on Saturday, September 28th at Mountainland Technical College: Lehi Campus located at 2301 West Ashton Blvd in Lehi, UT for the seventh year of the American Cancer Society's Utah Big Dig. The in-person event will start at 11:00 AM with the first hour for pediatric cancer survivors and their families only. The event will open to the public from 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
The BIG DIG UTAH is a family-friendly large equipment festival benefiting the American Cancer Society and pediatric cancer research. Big Dig Utah gives adults and children, including cancer patients and survivors, the opportunity to operate large construction equipment, including excavators, scissor lifts, and more! Bring the whole family and make a day of it!
Despite major advancements in treatment, cancer remains the second-leading cause of death among children ages 0 to 14. More than 9,900 new cancer cases will be diagnosed across the age group in the United States in 2024.
Funds raised for the event will directly go to support pediatric cancer research. The American Cancer Society is currently funding over $800,000 in pediatric multi-year research grants at the University of Utah and Primary Children's Hospital and more than $37 million in grants across the United States. The 2023 Big Dig event raised over $95,000 for pediatric cancer research.
The American Cancer Society is working to finish the fight against every cancer in every community. We are the largest private, not-for-profit funder of cancer research in the United States, investing more than $4 billion since 1946. Thanks in part to our contributions, more than 1.5 million lives have been saved in the US in the past two decades. Now, that is a reason to celebrate, so please join us. We hope to see you there!
