About:
The Varsity Club and our Varsity Girls basketball team decided to host a Morgan’s Message Dedication game and presentation by NHP Alum and Manhattan College student-athlete / Morgan’s Message ambassador, Nicolette Caneda. Nicolette spoke to our Winter student-athletes about her mental health struggles, how she overcome those struggles and what our students could do if faced with those challenges… the next day after the presentation we held the dedication game, we fundraised for t shirts for both NHP and Carey hs, we sold Morgan’s Message bracelets and t shirts/crewnecks with all the proceeds going to Morgan’s Message (over $150).
