The Alamogordo Tigers are teaming up with Kick-it.org to cure childhood cancer one point at a time.

The Alamogordo High School Varsity Football Team dedicated their football season to Alamogordo's own Kylie Beach and Jarod Johnson, and other children with cancer. Through the Kick-it For Cancer program, they are committed to raising awareness and funds for children's cancer research.

They teamed up with supporters on every touchdown, field goal, extra point, and safety they made this season. People pledged per point and lump sum donations to help raise money and awareness for children's cancer research.

So far this season, they have scored 403 points and have raised $954! Hopefully, Friday's playoff game vs Del Norte will put them over the $1,000 mark!

They presented certificates this morning to Kylie Beach and Jarod Johnson as a way of saying thank you for inspiring the team this season. The team is very proud of these two courageous young people and wanted them to know the Tigers are fighting with them.

The ceremony was held at Kylie's elementary school during breakfast this morning.
