Hauppauge High School recently held its 17th annual Kicks for Cancer event, a powerful tradition dedicated to raising awareness and funds for cancer research. This event is specially meaningful as it honors the memory of Courtney Tomkins, a beloved former student who tragically passed away from cancer.
The event brought together students, athletes, and community members, all united by the common goal of fighting cancer and celebrating Courtney’s legacy. The Kicks for Cancer soccer matches, along with various fundraising efforts, helped generate significant support for cancer research foundations.
The Hauppauge community’s continued commitment to this annual event is a testament to the lasting impact Courtney had and the dedication to finding a cure. Each year, this event not only raises vital funds but also strengthens the community’s spirit of giving and remembrance.
