2025 Mission Speaker

OLIVER BOYD

At the inaugural Coaches vs. Cancer Legends Gala, we shared the powerful story of Oliver Boyd and his family. When Oliver was diagnosed with lymphoma, their journey became one defined by strength, hope, and perseverance in the face of adversity.

During the paddle raise in his honor, $153,120 was raised to support pediatric cancer research. Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and guests, the evening made a meaningful and lasting impact on children and families affected by cancer.

This mission impact video tells Oliver’s story and reminds us why the fight against cancer matters every single day.
