A message from Maria Dutton:

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page! Help support "Oak Ridge Touchdowns Against Cancer" by making a pledge or donation today! You will seriously make a difference, guaranteed. Thank you for your support and generosity!

Oak Ridge is scoring to defeat childhood cancer this September!

In support of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the Oak Ridge Trojans football team is proud to join Touchdowns Against Cancer! We are inviting our fans to pledge a donation for every touchdown we score from September 15 to October 1. Every touchdown scored by the Trojans during this campaign will directly benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and help defeat childhood cancer.

Touchdowns Against Cancer is important to Oak Ridge because childhood cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease among young Americans. This weekend, our friend Tyler lost his battle to leukemia. Tyler joined our team as an Honorary Football Captain in 2013, three years after he was first diagnosed. He served as ambassador to our Go Gold Games which are dedicated to raising awareness and funds to support the fight against childhood cancer. We are honored to have been a small part of Tyler's battle and continue to be inspired by his strength, courage and perseverance.

This Friday, September 9th please GO GOLD and join us, where we are dedicating our football game to honor Tyler. Please consider donating per TD now to help find a cure - together TROJANS make a difference.


How Can You Help?

You can make a difference by pledging to donate for every touchdown we score between September 15th and October 1st. Our campaign benefits St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® and their mission to defeat childhood cancer.

  • $2 per TD will provide a patient a Pediatric Isolation Mask to help protect those with compromised immune systems from airborne germs
