The FCC Challenge begins with team formation, fundraising planning, and MLP program adoption. Each team chooses a MaxLove Project program to represent and fund for the following year. The theme is to “be exponential” and empower MaxLove Project to grow to fully serve the need nationwide.

There are 40,000 children in treatment for cancer each year and 500,000 survivors of childhood cancer alive in the US today. In order to reach 10% of this population and rise to meet 10% of the need, MaxLove Project must grow. The only way for us to grow to meet the needs of our community is to become exponential. Thanks to our amazing teams for stepping up to make such a tremendous impact with us!

Teams are required to raise a minimum of $25,000. Many choose a goal that represents the full cost of their adopted program. The teams have from the date of their inception through the evening of the finale event (9/16/2023) to fundraise.

The FCC Challenge culminates in our Finale event – the “App-Off” – on September 16th, 2023 at Tanaka Farms. The event will host 550 guests on the hillside at sunset. Each team will have a custom booth where they’ll serve appetizer tastings paired with a special beverage while they share about their MLP program and auction items. Fundraising continues throughout the evening and guests will have the opportunity to vote on their favorite team and dish as well as bid on their favorite team auction items. The event concludes with our celebrity judging decisions and awards ceremony.
