Dear Friends,
On October 23rd I will be playing 100 holes in Golf Fight Cancer's 2026 JAX Golf Marathon, a unique fundraising event that combines a love of golf and the desire to give back. For those not familiar, golfers of all skill levels play 100 holes to support cancer-related organizations and I am playing to raise funds for the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund.
This will be my 3rd year playing in this event and I am even more excited as the Ava's Army Team is growing! I will be joined this year by my best friends: Scott Lichko, Brian Holloway, and Jon Stellwagen.
As many of you know, Kym and I lost our beautiful daughter, Ava Grace, on January 23, 2023 to Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare pediatric cancer. During her 2.5 year cancer battle, the Jay Fund supported us in many different ways. As a family we enjoyed tickets to Hamilton, the Alligator Farm, the Jacksonville Zoo, virtual trivia with Imagine Dragons and Dr. Jill Biden, virtual cooking classes and care packages - just to name a few.
The Jay Fund has supported us after Ava's passing as they host an annual Remembrance Weekend, bringing families together who have experienced the same unfathable loss of losing a child to cancer. Every family's needs are unique and the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund is there to provide financial, emotional and practical support
Every dollar counts and I ask you to support me by making a gift. My goal is $3,000, and our team goal is $12,000. A donation of any amount will make a difference. Please help us BE THERE for families tackling pediatric cancer.
