Welcome to the Rocky Cares Martinis Matter Online Auction!  Thanks so much to all the amazing businesses and donors for their support of our cause.

Rocky Cares is a 501c3 nonprofit organization created in memory of Rocky Elardo, a bright, beautiful, and brave young woman who lost her battle to Ewing sarcoma in February 2024.  All proceeds from the online auction will be used to help us fulfill our mission.  Rocky Cares aims to honor Rocky's life and legacy by raising awareness and funding to support Ewing sarcoma research for a cure; providing an annual scholarship to senior(s) at Heritage High School in Leesburg, Virginia that embody Rocky's qualities of intelligence, athleticism, and kindness; and spreading Rocky's sunshine throughout the community.
