EASTON, PA - On Sunday, June 3, 2007 head football coach Tim Miller, along with assistant coaches Jonas Jackson, Terence Archer, Jason Pane and Mark Zataveski volunteered at the 4th Annual Lauren's First and Goal Football Camp at Lafayette College.
Lauren's First and Goal is a charitable organization created to raise funds to support pediatric brain tumor research, support local pediatric cancer services, and provide financial assistance to families living with a pediatric cancer diagnosis, and to raise public awareness regarding pediatric brain tumors.
The fund is supported primarily by Lauren's First and Goal Football Camp, a non-contact, one day instructional clinic taught by experienced Division I, II and III college coaches. This year's camp had over 1200 registered campers and 150 volunteer college coaches who were trying to help raise over $100,000 for Lauren's First and Goal Foundation.
The camp and organization are named in honor of Lauren Loose, a nine year old brain tumor survivor who has been living with a diagnosis of multiple brain tumors, Neurofibromatosis and Evan's Syndrome since she was 9 months old.
Her courage, relentless spirit and joy for life are an inspiration to those who know her. It is our hope that through Lauren's example, we can help to improve the lives of other children and families dealing with pediatric cancer.
