Beneficiary Organizations
Layla loved her cheerleading team the Tiny Tinkerbelles at Rocket Cheerleading of Natick and was the “tiniest tiny.” With her big personality, and big bow, she made a statement!
The foundation provided funding for competition bows for the Rocket Cheer teams in the 2020 season.
Circle of Friends Preschool and Children’s Center, in Framingham, was Layla’s home away from home since she was an infant. Circle of Friends provides children with a safe, fun, and educational experience. Their dedicated teachers focus on educating children as individuals in a play based environment, helping them to develop to their greatest potential as independent, enthusiastic learners.
Layla started playing hockey for Framingham Youth Hockey because she wanted to be just like her brother and picked it up with ease. She was easy to spot in her pink helmet in the Learn to Play Program and loved to play hockey with her friends.
The 2019 House League tournament was dedicated in Layla’s honor, with her name on the winning trophies and medals.
The foundation is offering a scholarship to cover tuition for the current session of Learn to Play hockey for a new or returning skater between ages 4-10 years old.
Layla was one when she started in Tiny Tumblers at Planet Gymnastics in Natick. She quickly moved up to advanced classes for her age, and became quite the cartwheel expert. As a three year old, a month shy of four years old, she did 14 cartwheels in one minute in the Annual Cartwheel-A-Thon fundraiser. Planet Gymnastics has done several fundraisers in Layla’s name, including last year’s Cartwheel-A-Thon and Trunk or Treat.
Layla loved to be a ballerina at Annemarie's Dance Centre in Ashland, Massachusetts. The studio has been offering dance education for over 40 years to dancers from 3 - adult.
The foundation is funding a tuition scholarship for a young dancer at Annemarie’s Dance Center starting in the fall for the 2020 year. This scholarship will cover the cost of tuition for one year for a new or continuing student who will be 4 by September 8, 2020. This scholarship is designed to help a student with financial need the opportunity to do what Layla loved so much - dance!
