$140,000 raised to support Flagler County cancer patients at AdventHealth

A weekend of generosity will make a lasting impact on cancer care in Flagler County. The AdventHealth Palm Coast Foundation raised over $140,000 during its annual Moonlit Gala on March 2 at The Club at Hammock Beach and Golf Tournament on Feb. 28 at Grand Haven Golf Club.

The majority of the funds will directly support the Freytag Cancer Center, which opened in January at AdventHealth Palm Coast and other priority initiatives. Thanks to the generosity of donors like Peter and Sue Freytag, this center is changing lives by providing advanced cancer treatments without the burden of traveling out of town.

“This community shows up for one another in the most incredible ways,” said John Subers, executive director of the AdventHealth Palm Coast Foundation. “Every dollar raised at this event represents hope for patients and families facing cancer. We are beyond grateful.”

This year marked the 15^th anniversary of the Moonlit Gala, a milestone reflecting a legacy of philanthropic support. Since its inception in 2010, this event has helped raise more than $1.85 million to support vital health programs and services, including:

• building the AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway
• advancing cancer care through initiatives like the Pink Army
• expanding cardiac services with a second cardiac cath lab
• supporting hospice services
• supporting the Flagler County Free Clinic, community education programs, and nursing excellence initiatives.

“The generosity of this community has already made an incredible impact,” said Subers. “And we’re just getting started.”

Looking ahead, the 2026 Moonlit Gala is scheduled for Sunday, March 1.
