Events
The Cancer Support House relies on a combination of private gifts and fundraisers each year to operate. The two primary fundraisers are Wine & Roses, held each spring, and Backyard BBQ, held in late summer. These two events are planned and hosted by staff and volunteers of the Support House. In addition to these fundraisers, many other individuals, businesses, and organizations host events on behalf of the Support House. In 2009, the following groups gave to the Support House as a result of fundraising efforts:
