How can I help?
- Volunteer – click the volunteer option of the registration page and sign up
- Sponsor to help fund a portion of the event – **please note that this is not intended to be
fundraiser event, but we would love some help with the real costs of putting the event on. - Tell others – this is our first year, and we’d like to make this a huge success if you know other
families with really sick kids, we’d love to invite them.
Why are we doing this?
We saw this video of the Big Dig event in Phoenix, and we were immediately convicted that this needs to happen here in the Greenville SC area as well. God took the
wheel from there, and we just put in the sweat to make it happen.
