[I]The Syracuse University Football team is always lifting in the offseason, but on July 20 it will be to save lives.

Uplifting Athletes is a football student-athlete run nonprofit organization with the mission to raise money for those affected by rare diseases. Syracuse began their own chapter in 2013 in honor of Rob Long, a former Orange punter affected by a rare form of brain cancer. It is called grade III anaplastic astrocytoma and it restricted Long from competing in the Pinstripe Bowl that year.

The team has never stopped supporting Long in his fight against brain cancer, however, they now have a new motivation. This new motivation is a 7-year-old girl from Mexico, New York named Lilian Belfield. Lilian has also been affected by a rare form of brain cancer called ananplastic astroblastoma, but that has not slowed her down.
