September 9, 2025 – Registration is now open for Lee Health’s third annual “Caring for the Cape” event which will be held Friday, January 30, 2026, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village. The tropical-themed event will include island inspired cuisine, specialty cocktails, music, and silent and live auctions featuring dining experiences, travel, memorabilia and more.

The evening’s program will give guests insight as to how Lee Health is continuing to expand services in Cape Coral, as well as how attendees can get involved or support exceptional healthcare in their community. Funds raised at the event will be used to help provide access to a variety of health care services for Cape Coral residents.

This annual event represents more than an investment in facilities—it is an investment in the long-term health, well-being, and future of Cape Coral.”

Tickets to the event are $150 per person. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. Levels of sponsorship include Presenting Sponsor at $20,000; Gold Sponsor at $10,000; Silver Sponsor at $5,000; Bronze Sponsor at $2,500; and Table Sponsor at $1,200.
