Hockey in Middletown Helps Kids Fighting Cancer

Hockey in Middletown NORTH and SOUTH rivals are again coming together this year

to raise much-needed funds and awareness for pediatric cancer research.

Our varsity opponents, RFH Bulldogs, and the Wall Crimson Knights,

have graciously agreed to join us in raising funds for this incredible cause. 

Last year, the teams collectively raised an amazing $27,000+

and was able to fully fund a pediatric research grant in Luca’s name.

Amazing things can happen when teams come together!

Please help us reach our goal to shut out pediatric cancer at these Gold Out Games.

In 2019, Middletown devastatingly lost Harmony School's Luca Iacono to Rhabdomyosarcoma at the tender age of 11.  In the wake of his death, we learned that only 4% of research funds are dedicated to pediatric cancer.  As a means of uniting and giving back to our community, Hockey in Middletown would like to help kids fight cancer by raising money to fund pediatric cancer research grants.  We are respectfully requesting donations from our family, friends, and community so that we can use our favorite sport to make a meaningful impact beyond the ice and help kids who are fighting cancer. We may be rivals on the ice, but we will unite in this unique opportunity to reach our goals to shut out childhood cancer. Please consider sponsoring us at this very special event and helping us to fund a second research grant in loving memory of Luca Iacono.

ALL funds raised will go to Infinite Love for Kids Fighting Cancer. Infinite Love is a 100% volunteer-run 501(c)(3) foundation created in 2013 by a Middletown mom, Andrea Gorsegner, after her own daughter, Natalie was diagnosed with very high-risk Leukemia and was thankfully cured 5 years later.  Since its inception, Infinite Love has funded over $2 million in pediatric cancer research grants, as well as they support local families financially and emotionally, including the Iacono family.  Click here to learn more about Infinite Love.
