Thank you to our title sponsor Raymond James

Thanks to our title sponsor, Raymond James, 100% of funds raised through this event directly support programs and services offered through Island Prostate Centre; serving men and families facing prostate cancer, right here on Vancouver Island. Once again, they are MATCHING all funds raised, up to $15,000!

We need the support of our community more than ever.

Without government funding, we rely on the power of private donors who are willing to support us through monthly, annual, or one-time giving. As more patients access our services, we want to ensure we are here to help!. If you can give, please do. Consider a minimum $20 donation in support of our 22nd event!

We know men still need us and we want to ensure that we are here to help!
