  • Spike It For Life was established in 2009 as a community service project of the Longmeadow High School (LHS) Girls Volleyball Team. It is a unique collection of independently run volleyball events in Western Massachusetts designed to raise money for various Cancer research programs and supporting services.


    Spike It For Life is the brand of a growing community of volleyball coaches, players and events across Western Massachusetts with the specific purpose of combining sport and philanthropy to raise money for Cancer research and supporting services.


    Cancer touches and affects all of us in one form or another. In an effort to raise Cancer awareness and funds for local Cancer programs the LHS Girls created Spike It For Life. Throughout Western Massachusetts, during the month of October, independent fundraiser events will be run to benefit various local Cancer programs. Spike It For Life is unique because each host school is allowed to choose their own cause to raise funds for as they deem appropriate. Information about specific events and donations can be found on the Upcoming Events page.
