The mission of Hackers For Hope is simply to work together as a community to find a cure for cancer.  In addition to raising funds for cancer research and treatment, Hackers For Hope seeks to provide a message of community, strength and most importantly, hope.

Since 1988, Hackers For Hope has raised funds primarily through an annual golfing event held in Darien, CT.  Each year, 12-20 golfers (or Hackers) play as many holes of golf as they can in a single day.  Friends, colleagues and supporters sponsor teams or individuals through per-hole pledges or outright donations.
