CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Carolina Panthers and Morris-Jenkins will celebrate the start of Kicks for Kids’ fifth season at Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital on Tuesday, Sept. 17 at 2 p.m.
This special fundraising event invites patients, families and care teams to join in on the action alongside members of the Panthers Special Teams squad by kicking miniature field goals.
For every field goal made in the hospital lobby, an additional $100 will be donated to Kicks for Kids, up to $15,000. Panthers punter Johnny Hekker and kicker Eddy Piñeiro will attend the event, visit with patients and participate in fundraising activities.
The Kicks for Kids program donates $1,000 for each field goal made during Panthers regular season home games to Atrium Health Levine Children’s.
Since its launch in 2020, the initiative has raised $77,000 in an effort to positively impact the lives of children undergoing treatment at Atrium Health Levine Children’s.
