Connor Heffler

This event is organized by the family and friends of Connor Heffler. Connor, an 11 year old from Natick, bravely battled Glioblastoma for 20 months before his passing in 2016. He is remembered as a feisty redhead with an infectious personality, positive outlook, huge heart and his ability to inspire others. Connor was able to attend several Cops for Kids with Cancer™ events during his illness and actively fundraised for the organization he loved. Connor's mother is a member of the Natick Police Department and Cops for Kids with Cancer was there for Connor and his family when they needed it most. Now it's time to help them be there for others who are fighting this devastating disease.

Cops for Kids with Cancer™

Cops for Kids with Cancer™ are a proud federally recognized 501(c)(3) that returns over 94% of funds raised to the families of children with cancer. Their donations have, for example, saved a family from eviction, helped pay down overwhelming bills, and paid to repair the only vehicle used to travel back and forth to the hospital. The situations are heartbreaking and all too real. In recent years, including the hospital donations, they have given to over 762 families in need, totaling more than $4.1 million in and around New England. That’s a lot of fundraising for a small charity, and the more the word gets out, the more requests they receive. We are soliciting your assistance and support in making this golf tournament a successful event, where we can provide a sizable donation to Cops for Kids with Cancer™ in memory of Connor so they, in turn, can assist families dealing with this horrible disease. Your tax free donation will be very much appreciated. Please support Cops for Kids with Cancer™ so they never have to deny a struggling family a helping hand.
