About Lacrosse the Nations
LtN is a humanitarian organization that unifies the lacrosse community to sustainably improve education and health while creating opportunity and hope for children in need. Using lacrosse and other physical activities, our programs teach important life skills and provide our students with positive outlets for sports and play. After hearing about my teammate's experiences to Nicaragua through LTN, I realized how much the power of our sport has changed the lives of the less fortunate. I am just happy to be a part of the growth of the sport I love so much.

LTN serves underprivileged communities in Nicaragua and Costa Rica, and our fundraising efforts will help send several of our players to Nicaragua on a volunteer trip this summer.
This year we will kick off our fundraising efforts with our game vs W&L, which will be named the Inaugural Virginia LTN Cup. Coach McCabe and I are both on the LTN Board of Directors, so we came up with this idea as a way to raise money and awareness for a great cause. We hope that you will take a look at the attached document that has more details on the event, and help our team reach our fundraising goal of $8,000. We also hope that we will be bringing the Cup back to Newport News after a big win vs. W&L on Feb 15th!
