V Foundation’s ‘Boo-Yah’ Gala Raises Record $3.1M for Cancer Research

The V Foundation for Cancer Research set a new fundraising record at this year’s 'Boo-Yah' event in New York. Held in honour of late ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, the gala raised $3.1 million for cancer news. The evening also marked the debut of a new 30 for 30 documentary about Scott’s life and legacy.

The event centred on Scott’s iconic catchphrase, 'Boo-Yah,' celebrating his impact on sports journalism and cancer awareness. Attendees watched the premiere of Boo-Yah: A Portrait of Stuart Scott, a film highlighting his career and battle with cancer.

The record-breaking $3.1 million raised will fund critical cancer news projects. Moss’s award recognises ongoing efforts to improve healthcare equity, particularly in underserved communities. The event reinforced the V Foundation’s mission while honouring Stuart Scott’s enduring influence.
