Our philanthropy

American Cancer Society
Relay for Life

Every year Rubicon supports American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life event, and this year was our best year to date! 
In 2018, the Rubicon Relay Committee held various fundraisers which raised more than $12,000 to support cancer research.

Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center
Golf Tournament

Rubicon’s annual golf tournament benefiting Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center is held every spring and is fun for employees and vendors alike. Since 2002, Rubicon has raised over $1 Million to support Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in its effort to continue to improve survivor-ship and advance the fight against cancer.

AFP Corporate PHilanthropy

In 2018, Rubicon was awarded the National Philanthropy Award for Corporate Giving awarded by the GBR Association of Professional Fundraisers.
