At Layups 4 Life, our mission has always been to fight cancer ‘one layup at a time’. As a cancer survivor, Layups 4 Life’s founder Dan Exter made it his personal mission to be an advocate in the fight against this disease and 11 years and $200,000 later, our success is deeply rooted in the support received by our community. As we put a close to 2024, we want to acknowledge the generosity of our donors as we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve raised $10,000 supporting cancer research and clinical trials! These funds will go directly toward our continued efforts in advancing lifesaving treatments and offering hope to those battling this devastating disease.
Whether you played in one of our tournaments, donated to our cause, or simply helped spread the word, we want to make sure the L4L community is aware of the tangible difference they are making in the fight against cancer. From the bottom of our hearts: thank you.
2025 is shaping up to be an incredible year for Layups 4 Life, and we’re counting on your continued support to help us raise even more funds. Let’s keep the momentum going as we get underway into 2025, we have four events on the horizon with something for everyone. Stay connected with us on social media (@layups4life) and our website for updates and registration details. Together we are making a difference, ‘one layup at a time’.
