Kick Childhood Cancer Month Overview

New England Revolution Academy Highlights: June 6, 2022

September 1, 2022 – Major League Soccer (MLS)New England Revolution News Release

The New England Revolution and
the Pablove Foundation have
partnered for the first time to provide three local pediatric cancer
survivors with an all-access experience for a training session at the
Revolution’s Socios.com Training Center.


Eleanor (8), Chloe (12), and Doriana (18), all from Massachusetts, are
participants in the Pablove Foundation’s “Shutterbugs” healing arts
program, a six-week course that helps childhood cancer patients find
a creative outlet through photography. The foundation is named after
Pablo, a little boy who lost his fight with cancer, and the program
serves kids with cancer and survivors both in New England and
across the U.S.

All three artists attended a Revolution training session on August 24
to practice their photography skills up close and personal with pro
athletes. Their photographs will be printed on glass and displayed at
the Pablove Shutterbugs’ Gallery at New England’s Fight Childhood
Cancer match on September 17,
with proceeds directly funding
the Pablove Foundation’s pediatric cancer research grants.

As part of the campaign to #KickChildhoodCancer, MLS clubs will recognize
children fighting cancer as well as the local organizations working to find a cure
through a number of matchday features. Here are some of the ways the Revolution will show support during the Fight Childhood Cancer Match on Sept. 17:
