Hi wonderful family & friends!
I wanted to thank you all for joining the Swirls Wine Fundraiser sponsored by One Hope! Something that my family and I are so grateful for are the connections we have made through Swirls and the pediatric cancer community. One very special connection was with the Pajak family: Jessica, Stan, & Emma.
Jessica Pajak is the supermom to Emma, a Ewing sarcoma warrior! In honor of Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month, Jessica and her team at One Hope are raising awareness and funding for pediatric cancer organizations. We are so honored that Jessica reached out and asked if Swirls Around the World would like to participate!!
We missed seeing our Swirls Family and Friends at our annual Pub Crawl, but now we have the opportunity to Swirl & Sip with One Hope!! Thank you so much Jessica! We love you and are so honored to have you part of our Swirls family.
Please feel free to invite family, friends, co-workers to this group! Sipping Swirls Strong together!

Our incredible friend and warrior, Brenden Butler, connected us with his very good friend DJ Graham and Graham Hockey Skills & Development! We are so honored and humbled that Graham Hockey Skills & Development are dedicating Childhood Cancer Awareness Month to Swirls Around the World! We love the hockey community! Thank you so much Brenden and DJ!! We can’t wait to visit Dallas soon!
Please head over to Graham Hockey Skills & Development to support their players and mission, and check out their awesome talent!


We have a very special Swirls spotlight dedicated to a warrior family who holds a truly special place in our hearts — the Keefe Family.
In November 2020, at just 2.5 years old, Connor was diagnosed with Leukemia. Throughout his journey, Connor showed incredible courage and superhero strength. In December 2022, he reached an incredible milestone — completing treatment and defeating cancer!
Our Swirls Family has been so honored to connect with Connor and his amazing family — his wonderful parents, Claire & Nick, and his super-sister, Sammie. From sharing special moments together to welcoming them at our Boston Bruins Hockey Fights Cancer Night, we will never forget the joy on Connor’s face when he met his hockey idol, Charlie Coyle.
Recently, we received the most meaningful and heartfelt surprise from the Keefe family — Connor and Sammie chose to “Play It Forward” for Swirls, turning their own journey into a mission to give back and support other children facing cancer.
Claire, Nick, Connor, and Sammie — thank you for sharing your story, your hearts, and your incredible generosity. We are beyond grateful to have you as part of our Swirls Family. We love you all so much.
Sharing a beautiful message from Connor’s supermom, Claire:
“In honor of Matthew Cirelli, Swirls Around the World has brought joy, community and unforgettable experiences to kids battling cancer—including our son Connor.”
From thoughtful care packages to special moments with the Bruins, Swirls has helped turn some of Connor’s hardest days into meaningful memories and a love for hockey.
To give back and “play it forward,” Connor and his sister Sammie began decorating and selling hockey pucks at local rinks and in locker rooms during this winter—raising money so Swirls can continue supporting other young warriors.
One puck at a time, Connor raised hundreds and hundreds of dollars, while honoring Matthew’s legacy and helping spread hope.
Thank you, Swirls, for all that you do!”
– Claire Keefe, Mom of Connor

Leo’s English teacher was extremely impressed by the efforts, organization, & early success of Leo’s group’s fundraising effort for Swirls Around The World! The $300 goal Leo & his groupmates first set, was met within the first day, which was amazing! His teacher suggested upping the goal, so the boys increased it to $500, & it is only $85 away from that already!!
When Leo got home from school, he told me all about how well his group’s presentation went, & how his teacher seemed very pleased with their progress! He was beaming with pride while telling me about it, & the smile on his face was absolutely priceless! He is truly grateful to have the support of so many! I cannot express how grateful we are that his philanthropic efforts have been so well received!!!
** They still have a couple weeks left to raise money. So, share the boys’ GoFundMe if you can, donate if you can, & let’s help Leo & his group reach their second goal of $500 for Swirls Around the World!!!

The Swirls Around the World Foundation is a nonprofit organization, honoring the life and legacy of Matthew “Swirls” Cirelli who passed away at the age of 19 after battling Ewing Sarcoma.
The mission of the foundation is to honor Matthew’s legacy by embracing his courage, spirit, and kindness by paying it forward.
