Titan Moms raise $13K for Rockville Centre Breast Cancer Coalition at flag football fundraiser

Posted

The Titan Moms Flag Football Games, now in its second year, has become a great opportunity for the community to join forces in a fun and meaningful way to close out Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 

The Titan Moms got dressed up in their pink gear on Oct. 26, coming from the long-lived tradition of the Titans wearing pink socks throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month, for a fun-filled evening filled with games, raffles and more. 

“We wanted to replicate the incredible energy, community spirit, and teamwork that made last year such a success,” Lisa Guerriero of Titan Moms said. “This year’s turnout was incredible! We had over 100 women participating across the various grade-level teams and more than 200 spectators cheering them on from the sidelines. The event was filled with energy, excitement, and community spirit, creating a truly memorable day for everyone involved.” 

The event, which was also organized by Jessica Bifulco, was a deemed a hug success raising over $13,000, surpassing last year’s earnings of $10,000.

“Many of our families have been personally affected by breast cancer, and we wanted to honor and support them by donating all proceeds from our Titans Moms Flag Football Game to the Rockville Centre Breast Cancer Coalition,” Guerriero said.   

Participants pay $50 to play in the games, with raffle baskets, a 50/50 raffle and a bake sale. Attendance was free of charge for spectators.

“A dedicated raffle committee chaired by Lucy Cavanaugh introduced this exciting new addition through their creativity and hard work,” Guerriero added. 

Each year, they get most excited to see the community come together for such an eventful evening. Similar to last year’s, they honored their Titans Breast Cancer Survivors during halftime, which they say is the most meaningful and emotional moment of the event.   

“This initiative stems from the strong community built through the Titans organization, which was founded 11 years ago by Bill and Dana Lozito,” Guerriero said. “Their vision created a wonderful network of families and athletes that continues to grow stronger each year.  Events like this one are a reflection of that lasting legacy.”
