How do events help HCI?
Events bring the mission of HCI to the community and allow the public to help. Golf tournaments, for example, often provide areas of gift giving for companies to participate as well as receive recognition in the media. Running and cycling events often charge a registration fee with a portion going to HCF. The Hometown Heroes program fund raises additional dollars through asking friends and family to support cancer research in honor or in memory of someone they may know who is battling or has battled cancer. Events are a way that we can raise the level of awareness of the cancer cause in our community and leverage fun into opportunities to raise funds for the cause.
