About:
The Waltham High School Boys Ice Hockey team is showing that the impact of athletics goes far beyond the rink—using their platform to support those facing breast cancer and make a meaningful difference in their community.
This past February, the team proudly participated in Skating Strides, partnering with Ellie Fund to help raise awareness and stand alongside patients and families navigating the challenges of breast cancer.
Through their involvement, Waltham High Hockey demonstrated what it truly means to be part of a community—coming together not just as teammates, but as advocates for a cause that touches so many lives.
Their efforts helped support the mission of Ellie Fund, which provides critical services to breast cancer patients across Massachusetts, easing the everyday burdens of treatment so families can focus on what matters most—healing.
More than just a game, this initiative reflects the core values of education-based athletics: leadership, compassion, and service. By stepping up and using their voices, these student-athletes are helping to spread awareness and inspire others to get involved.
