Haymakers for Hope gives everyday men and women the opportunity to fight back against cancer by training for and competing in charity boxing events to raise money and awareness. Since its formation as a 501(c)(3) charity in 2010, participants have raised nearly $12 million across 24 events and, in doing so, have helped propel efforts to find a cure.

When I first heard about the organization and its 8th annual NYC event (shout out @ Colleen Hartigan), I immediately knew I wanted to be involved. To my late grandfather Louis Gartz, close friend Jane D'Agostino, and countless others who have been impacted by cancer - I will give everything I have to training and fighting in your honor. I've faced adversity in my life, and I will surely face adversity learning how to box in 4 months time, but the will to overcome inherent in any fight vs. cancer is a spirit well worth fighting for.

Please join me in this fight by donating through the link at the top of this page. With the H4H platform, I guarantee your dollars will work as hard as I do to #KOCancer. Thank you for your support!
