KIDS BEAT CANCER.
B E N E F I T I N G :
Fight Childhood Cancer With Every Touchdown.
In support of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, MaxPreps, PLEDGE IT and St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital have partnered to launch Touchdowns Against Cancer, the
first-of-its-kind national high school football program aimed to unify teams across the
country for a common cause: defeating childhood cancer. Every touchdown scored between
September 15 - October 1 will directly benefit St. Jude and the fight against childhood cancer.
Teams will participate in this unique opportunity by launching PLEDGE IT online fundraisers
supporting St. Jude. Fans can pledge a donation toward every touchdown their team scores
during the last three weeks in September. Teams, conferences, and states will compete to
see whose touchdowns raise the most in the fight against childhood cancer!
