Hoops for Hope

In March 2024, we hosted our first-ever fundraiser, Hoops for Hope, in downtown Raleigh during March Madness. More than 200 guests came out to cheer on their favorite teams, support the Melanoma Research Foundation, and witness the official announcement of the Reese Ward Foundation. The event featured exciting silent auction items, prizes, and giveaways—creating an energetic and meaningful night for all who attended. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, Hoops for Hope raised $89,000 for the Melanoma Research Foundation.
