Honoring Patrick Woepse’s life while raising awareness for NUT Carcinoma
PWF Silent Auction 2026
Welcome to the 2026 PWF Silent Auction, open September 1–30. Every item in this auction has been generously donated by businesses, families, and friends who believe in our mission to create hope for those facing rare cancer.
When Patrick was diagnosed with NUT carcinoma, a rare and aggressive head, neck and lung cancer, we quickly learned how urgently more research is needed. Today, the Patrick Woepse Foundation is working to change that. Through partnerships with leading researchers and institutions, we are helping fund innovative rare cancer research while supporting patients and families navigating unimaginable challenges.
Whether you’re bidding on an unforgettable experience, a wellness package, or a one-of-a-kind item, every bid directly supports the fight against rare cancer. Together, we can accelerate research, raise awareness, and give hope to families who need it most.
Thank you for being part of Patrick’s legacy and for believing, alongside us, that we can do hard things.

Patrick’s Story
Patrick’s life was more than his fight against cancer. He coined the term “We Can Do Hard Things” and has sparked inspiration through his legacy, showing that despite his diagnosis we all have the capability to keep showing up, fighting, and making a difference in other people’s lives.
Therefore, our vision has the potential to expand its impact elsewhere. We can’t wait for you to be a part of it.
