In the past, our in-person benefit [was] expensive to come to. If you weren't part of a corporate sponsorship, then you had to pay a ticket. So a good number of people, who were of good will, who did not have the money to pay for a ticket, were just left out of it. Within a peer-to-peer approach, we were able to welcome them into the celebration. And they responded extremely well to that.
