On Aug. 22, 2025, Operation BBQ Relief staff and volunteers fired up the smokers at Tomstock: Rockin’ for a Cure in Independence, Missouri—serving 1,000 meals to fuel an incredible night of music and purpose. The event raised vital funds for The H8 Cancer Foundation and other cancer-fighting organizations. We’re proud to have been part of this inspiring tradition for the eighth year in a row.
