Great competition. Great company. Even greater impact! 💙

What an incredible day at Skanska’s Tailgate Toss last week!

We are so grateful to Skanska for bringing together teams, sponsors, and community partners for a fun-filled co****le tournament benefiting Connor’s Heroes.

Events like this are a wonderful reminder that supporting families facing childhood cancer is truly a team effort.

Thank you to everyone who tossed a bag, sponsored a team, volunteered, or cheered from the sidelines. Your generosity helps ensure no family faces childhood cancer alone!

🎃👻 Pumpkins, ghosts, and even an axolotl or two (what is an axolotl🦎? Ask a kid)! It was all treats and no tricks at our October Heroes Art Session. Our hero families spent a crisp fall day creating, laughing, and making memories together. 🍂 Visual Arts Center of Richmond ConnorsHeroes.org

The Fifth Annual Opie Open, raised over $40,000 for the 2026 Holiday Hero Fund! The Heizer family hosts this golf tournament each year to honor Opie’s legacy in such a special way. Thank you to the golfers, sponsors and donors for making this tournament the most successful one to date!

The holidays can be overwhelming for families facing a child’s cancer treatment. Funds raised will provide financial support, toys and gifts, holiday meals and experiences to local children in treatment for cancer. Thank you, Heizer Family. You all are true Holiday Heroes! 💙

Thomas and Hannah’s annual tailgate brings together family and friends to honor Thomas’s late father, Tim. At the heart of the event is their love of helping children. Something Tim strongly believed in.

The 11th Annual Tailgate for Timmy raised over $33,000 for Connor’s Heroes.

Everyone had a great time with live music, a kids zone, and of course crowning this year’s Tailgate Champion! The T4T community continues to show up for children with cancer and we are so grateful for their dedication to our mission!

Ahhh, this was sweet! VCU nurses who care for the kiddos on the 12th floor 🐢 shared these pics of the team. They appreciated how Connor’s Heroes decorated the unit for September’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and Sickle Cell Awareness Month. A surprise pizza delivery (for day & night shifts) was greeted with 🙌 too! We are so lucky to work with this caring crew!

If you see your favorite nurse in this photo, give her a shout out in the comments!

Connor’s Heroes is excited to be part of Mustaches For Kids, a fundraiser that raises money for Richmond based children’s charities by growing mustaches. We’re looking for growers! Anyone can grow, whatever your age, gender or facial hair history. If a real mustache isn’t for you, a fake one counts too! Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ Growers start November with a clean-shaven face
2️⃣ Grow a mustache of any size, shape or style
3️⃣ Invite family and friends to cheer them on by donating to a grower’s fundraising page

🥸 GROW WITH US! 🥸
