  • The My Hero Gala, an annual fundraiser at the Bobcats Arena featuring a formal dinner and silent auction, raises money for the Novant Health Community Care Cruiser, a 40-foot mobile clinic providing immunizations to underserved youth ages 0-17.
  • Bobcats players and Rufus participate in monthly hospital visits to Novant Health Hemby Children's Hospital, brightening the day of pediatric patients and their families and bringing with them goodie bags, hugs and smiles.
