The event functions as a fundraiser for the Nicole Podkowa Patient & Caregiver Fund. In the prior year the event raised over $175,000 to support that fund. The fund provides assistance to patients and families receiving treatment at Southcoast Health Cancer by helping with utility payments, food, housing, transportation, cancer-related supplies and other necessities.
Organizers seek community committee members, volunteers, peer-to-peer fundraisers and sponsors to support the event and its fundraising goals.
