Soccer for a Cause Tournament
The Soccer for a Cause festival is a charitable event that brings together 22 girls’ soccer teams from the Greater Middlesex Conference to raise money for pediatric cancer patients and other children in need. The tournament benefits The Marisa Tufaro Foundation and Go4theGoal.
In addition to raising money, the participating teams also collect non-perishable food items for REPLENISH, a regional food bank serving Middlesex County residents. The top fundraising teams for each charity will be recognized during an awards presentation on the day of the festival.
The JP Stevens Hawks are proud to be a part of this worthy cause and look forward to continuing their successful season on and off the field.
