The event is the biggest fundraiser for the Austin Public Education Foundation each year. Last year it raised $20,000. The funds enable the foundation to provide educational opportunities for students that are not funded through the school district.

The foundation has given more than $370,000 to enrich learning in Austin Public Schools.
