About the TESF Courage Cup.
The Thomas E. Smith Foundation Courage Cup is more than a hockey game, it’s a shot at changing lives. Powered by the Boston Bruins Foundation, is the a first-of-its-kind charity hockey tournament at TD Garden.
The inaugural event was September 29, 2025 during SCI (spinal cord injury) Awareness Month, raising over $250,000 to better the lives of those living with paralysis.
Why Your Support Matters.
The Thomas E. Smith Foundation is often the first call for families and caregivers when a spinal cord injury happens.
We provide critical financial and emotional support, help navigate short- and long-term care planning, and cover urgent needs needs that are unmet due to cost or circumstances.
Funds raised through this event directly support our Care Continuum Program, improving quality of life for individuals living with paralysis.
Your support makes this possible.
