Welcome to Harness the Hope, where you can help us make a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.

Harness the Hope is an entirely volunteer driven not-for-profit organization with a dedicated committee and team of volunteers with roots that run deep within the harness racing community. All event proceeds are directly donated to various cancer organizations that provides direct support programs for those faced with a cancer diagnosis and that provide breast cancer awareness, research and improved treatments for those directly affected by or who may face breast cancer in their lifetime.

How can you help?

We depend solely on donations, sponsorships and proceeds from the sales of our merchandise throughout the year. We invite you: to ATTEND an event at one of the racetracks (see below for dates), SHOP our swag or inquire about our exciting and unique SPONSORSHIP opportunities.
