“The children at SickKids who are fighting cancer are true heroes,” says Rosanne O’Neil. On June 20th, 2009, sponsors and volunteers joined O’Neil as they dodged and dove into the summer sand for the Heatwave Beach Volleyball tournament in support of the Hospital for Sick Children. Despite the uncooperative weather, the drizzling rain did not stop these kind-hearted athletes from contributing to the cause. Raising over $1 million in the last five years, the SickKids Foundation continues its tradition of summer beach fun for the cause.
