This time, they are going to give the money to Prostate Cancer Foundation. This kind of charity kind of activities is encouraged and respected all over the world, there are very few organizations which think for such a noble cause (Yeoman Yu, 2012). Moreover, cancer is a fatal traumatic illness all over the universe and an event getting involved in this kind of genuine charity does earn its name to be an iconic one. This shall spread awareness as well as sympathy for the cancer patients. References Roth, K. (2013). The Oktoberfest Rearrangement.Chemviews. https://dx.doi.org/10.1002/chemv.201300098 Yeoman, I.
