The Tommy Brull Foundation’s 17th annual fundraiser on Nov. 23 at the St. Agnes Parish Center will focus on 12-year-old Shea Hubbard as the main benefactor.
Shea, a sixth grader at South Side Middle School in Rockville Centre, loves both playing and watching hockey and baseball. He’s a dedicated fan of the New York Islanders and the Mets. In September, Shea began experiencing difficulties on the ice, prompting his parents to take him to the emergency room. An MRI revealed a bleeding brain cavernoma. He underwent complex brain surgery and is currently recovering, with challenges to coordination and strength on his left side.
Shea faces a long road to recovery, and the foundation is dedicated to helping his family cover medical and therapy expenses. He is approaching his recovery with remarkable resilience, and the community is rallying behind him. Those wishing to show support are encouraged to attend the event or make a donation.
The fundraiser will take place on Saturday, Nov. 23 at the St. Agnes Parish Center from 6 - 10 p.m. There will be food, fund, friends, raffles and live music, including an afterparty featuring The Knobs. The Tommy Brull Foundation will also present its "Courage and Resilience Award" to this year's honoree. For more information contact the Tommy Brull Foundation via Instagram.
