Founded in 2018 by cancer survivor, Dr. Jason Duff and his wife, Trisha Duff, MISSION: Possible has raised $36,000 for CSCGP with three fundraising events.

In December 2020, MISSION: Possible decided to focus their efforts on the global pandemic and the effect it was having on all of us, specifically during the 2020 holiday season. MISSION: Possible presented OPERATION OUTREACH, a mental health focused event with music, education, guided mindfulness, baking tips, and fitness instruction. The goal was to spread love, educate, support, and entertain in order to help people thrive during the holidays and the global pandemic. MISSION: Possible was always intended to serve as a vehicle to educate and entertain while operating as a catalyst for change. MISSION: Possible has the resources, ability and desire to impact myriad issues. This year they are thrilled to once again support the CSCGP through this remarkable event.
