We do this event to raise money that we directly contribute to our local Sock Out Cancer Organization here in Binghamton, New York. The monies we raise than gets granted from Sock Out Cancer to our local Hospital Foundations and The Mercy House to manage and distribute to the local cancer patients in our own Community. Below are the amounts we have been able to contribute each of the five years that we have been doing this wonderful event. We are hoping and looking forward to this year – our 8th Anniversary year to be even bigger and better!!!
We have assisted many of our own patients by submitting the patients bills directly to the
Hospital Foundations for consideration in granting and paying the patient personal
expenses/bills to assist with their financial burden while being treated for cancer. Without this
event and Sock Out Cancer many of our own patients would struggle with financial hardships
during a very traumatic time in their lives. We are glad to be able to do our part to help our
Community and cancer patients!
