Making an Impact
Our CAT14 Volleyball Fundraiser is more than just a game—it's our commitment to making a difference in the world. This year, we're proud to support charities close to our hearts: the American Cancer Society, the Double H Ranch, and the 1:12 Project.
The American Cancer Society holds a special significance for us. Over the years, we've partnered with them through initiatives like CAT14, Men Wear Pink, and Tackle Cancer. Our dedication stems from personal experiences, with loved ones like Aunt Karis and Kathy Klimchak courageously battling cancer. Your contributions fuel vital research and support in the fight against cancer.
We're also rallying behind the Double H Ranch, an organization providing year-round support for children and families facing life-threatening illnesses. With deep family ties and past participation in their events, we're excited to amplify our impact and sponsor unforgettable experiences for campers in the Adirondacks.
Lastly, through the 1:12 Project, we're empowering underprivileged youth in the Dominican Republic through sports and faith. From hosting Baseball Sports Camps to providing clean water and supporting local jobs, your donations make a tangible difference in communities like Banica.
Join us in making a lasting impact. Together, we're spreading light and love to communities near and far.
The History of the CAT
Fourteen summers ago, high school brothers Nick and Garrett Bernardo, along with best friend Alex Martin, started a volleyball tournament with their friends from Bethlehem, NY.
Originally hosting eight teams of six players, the tournament brought together friends as players, referees, DJs, and announcers. Now, the CAT Volleyball Tournament has evolved into a sixteen-team tournament and a local summer staple event.
NOVUS Clothing Company has outfitted the CAT and its participants since 2012 with tees and tank tops and has used the event to raise money for causes they care about.
The CAT Volleyball Tournament has raised money for the Jimmy Fund, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, and the American Cancer Society of the Capital Region.
