WARWICK, RI – The Warwick Patriots are participating in the annual Cheer for Dana-Farber® fundraiser encouraging young adults to become leaders while raising funds for patient care and research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
Cheer for Dana-Farber teams range from middle school to college level teams and include Pop Warner and All-Star cheerleaders. Participating Cheer for Dana-Farber teams fundraise in their local communities through car washes, bake sales, canister collections, and similar activities. The Warwick Patriots will fundraise until April 15, 2020.
The top nine fundraising teams will have the opportunity to attend a cheer clinic with the New England Patriots Cheerleaders. For every $500 raised, teams are entered to win the chance to perform on the field at Gillette Stadium prior to a pre-season New England Patriots game next season. Teams that reach the $500 fundraising level also receive Cheer for Dana-Farber T-shirts.
Since its launch in 2013, Cheer for Dana-Farber has raised nearly $400,000 to support patient care and cancer research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
