There are a number of references where one can get information about participating in prostate cancer research.

Fundraisers are meant to raise money for cancer research. Everyone should participate in this by either going on 'runs' or, if they don't have the time to give to a benefit for raising money for cancer. Always ask whomever you are donating too what the Administration fees are and if they are over 10% don't give to that particular benefit. This simply means that more of the money should be going into the research and less into the pockets of Administration. All charities are different and some are on the up and up and some are not.
