The Cattlemen’s Ball of Nebraska is a charity that raises money for cancer research through an annual fundraiser.

The Cattlemen’s Ball is held in a different location each year, giving Nebraska communities the opportunity to showcase their unique area of the state while raising money for research at the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center in Omaha.

The event also promotes beef, one of the state’s largest industries, as part of a healthy diet.
