SPECIAL EVENT
Anderson University and Newberry College are Lacing Up 4 Pediatric Cancer to support the Go4theGoal Foundation to help kids battling cancer.
Lace Up 4 Pediatric Cancer began in the fall of 2011. Since then, professional, college and youth teams have participated in raising funds and awareness for the #1 disease killer of children. To date, over a half million athletes have supported our cause. $4 from every $5 pair of laces and 100% of all donations directly benefit kids and families in the state where the funds are raised.
