Hearts 4 Riley <3

2/3/2019

Hey Friends!
February is CONGENITAL HEART DEFECT AWARENESS MONTH -

Those of you who weren't with us last Feb may not know but, Coach Will's Daughter Riley was born with CHD.
Every year as a team we make Valentine cards for the AZ Children's Hospital in honor of Riley, who unfortunately is preparing for another surgery.
This week we will be collecting Valentine cards for the Children's Hospital again to celebrate Riley and raise awareness for CHD!
Drop off your masterpieces by Monday Feb 11th so we can get them to the kids in time for Valentines Day!
Please keep Will, Amy & Riley in your thoughts and prayers as they prepare and go through this next surgery!

It's that time again....Get your Red nose's

5/22/2017

Red Nose Day is a special day for Americans to come together to have fun and make a difference for kids.Red Nose Day returns this year to the U.S. on Thursday May 25, 2017. The day's events will culminate in a two-hour live primetime TV special on NBC, featuring the biggest stars across comedy, music, TV and film. Funds raised go to the Red Nose Day Fund which distributes the money through programs to keep children and young people safe, healthy and educated. Red Nose Day USA is run by Comic Relief Inc. in the U.S. and Comic Relief UK are independent sister organizations that are joined by their shared vision of a just world, free from poverty and the mission to drive positive change through the power of entertainment.
