PEDIATRIC CANCER AWARENESS DAY
- The St. Bonaventure University men's soccer team is raising awareness for Pediatric Cancer Awareness by teaming up with the Go4TheGoal Foundation.
- Through the partnership, the Bonnies are aiming to raise funds and awareness for kids battling cancer in our community. Having a child with cancer is a huge financial burden for many families, and the pandemic has made their individual situations even more dire. Please help us show these kids and their families that they don't have to fight alone by making a donation to our page.
- All funds raised will be used to improve the lives of kids battling cancer by providing financial assistance, funding innovative research, developing and implementing unique hospital programs, and granting personal wishes. To donate to the Go4TheGoal Foundation, click here.
