To get ready for September’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Connor’s Heroes hosted an ice cream celebration at Gelati Celesti in Stony Point. Hero families were treated to a scoop (or two) of their favorite ice cream.
Also, we celebrated the amazing Jr. Hero Squad. The Jr. Hero Squad were 18 kids — from preschool to college — determined to help kids with cancer. The 2023 Jr. Hero Squad smashed their fundraising goal. They raised a whopping $18,000.
A big thank you to the 2023 Jr. Hero Squad: Otis, Pauline & Major, Caroline, Peyton & Madeline, Becca, Mark, Hal & Maren, Nadia & Layla, Poppy, Alia, Annabelle & Isaac, Julianna, Roland. You were the hero children with cancer needed.
First Place: Julianna
Second Place: Otis, Pauline & Major
Third Place: Mark
