The game will benefit Children’s of Alabama, which treats more than 90 percent of all children in Alabama who have been diagnosed with cancer.
Past games have benefitted Harry S. Truman Middle School, Susan B. Komen Fund, Big Oak Ranch, Special Olympics, Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, Amelia Center, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the National Brain Tumor Society. In total, Hewitt-Trussville Middle School students have raised more than $43,000 for these causes.
