Mission Statement:
Nick was a firefighter who lost his life on 9/11/01 while saving others. We created this fund to honor him and to keep his memory alive. We continue his legacy of helping others by presenting, on an annual basis, a monetary award to two Port Richmond High School graduating student athletes, who will be going on to college. The criteria: They must have faced great adversity, conquered it and gone on to achieve!

The registration for entry into this years race begins April 24th and will end May 24th at 11:59 PM. The lottery will be drawn shortly thereafter. We will have guaranteed entries this year as we have in the past. The amount of entries we will have is still pending.
