To help introduce NeoHERO Foundation™ to the community and raise awareness of our urgent mission, we hosted a Launch Party—a family-friendly fundraising event with an evening of music, food, raffles, activity booths, and celebration. Our Launch was held on Saturday, August 23, 2025 at the Hanahan Amphitheater and will now become an annual anniversary fundraiser beginning in 2026.
