This competiton is in colaboration with local charity Ethan's Ohana.

Ethan's Ohana was founded in honor of Ethan Perry. In July of 2020, Ethan was diagnosed with T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. He began treatment shortly after and fought every day while still attending school online. While in the hospital, Ethan recieved a cube, learned how to solve it, and started gaining speed much like the rest of us have. Unfortunately, the cancer spread and Ethan passed in March of 2021. Ethan's Ohana now recieves donations in the form of cubes, which they turn around and donate to other kids just like Ethan. We ask that you bring atleast one 3x3x3 cube to join us in this mission.

You can find more information about Ethan's Ohana on their website ethansohana.org along with on their instagram and facebook pages @ethansohana.
