The Cornhusker hotel was the site for some of Lincoln's most courageous fighters this weekend.
All in an effort to put an end to heart disease.
More than 450 people attended the Heart Ball, hoping to raise more than 200 thousand dollars.
8 young survivors were honored at the event for their courage and spirit. Mallory Mueller is a heart disease survivor, "My heart didn't work when I was a baby so they had to give me a new heart."
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America, killing more people each year than all forms of cancer combined.
This was the event's 13th year raising money for heart disease research and prevention
