Team Tucker Night at the Pavilion was January 27th!
Thank you to Hopkins High School Hockey for hosting and to all
of the Teams that participated in the very successful Dollar Drive!
Teams across the metro area raised money for Team Tucker through the Dollar Drive.  Guests at the event met two of our amazing VIPs and celebrated the teams that participated in the drive.  Thanks to all for your generosity and support of our mission!  


​Our Purpose


​​Tucker Helstrom was a boy living in the Hopkins community. He spent his short 9 ½ years playing sports, laughing with friends and family, and showing love to all, even after cancer forced the amputation of his leg. Tucker showed everyone how to live during his heroic battle with osteosarcoma. Now, his mother, family, and his “team” are continuing his legacy. Tucker, with his amazing strength and attitude, created an explosion. Team Tucker ensures more children Play, Laugh, and feel Love.

Our Mission

All children deserve to Play, Laugh and feel Love daily.
​Team Tucker provides the time and resources to ensure that Tucker’s legacy lives on.

​​Tucker Helstrom was a boy living in the Hopkins community who spent his short 9 1/2 years of life playing sports, laughing with friends and family, and showing love to people in need. Even when cancer took his leg, he continued to find ways to play sports, have fun with friends and family, and continued to worry about others despite having his own major troubles. Ironically, while Tucker showed everyone how to live during his heroic battle with osteosarcoma, he ended up dying. However, his mother, family and his "team" will build the Foundation which will ensure his legacy will live. Tucker, with his amazing strength and attitude, created an explosion reaching those who loved Tucker, whether they met him or just read about him. The Team Tucker Foundation will ensure that even more people will benefit, as it will help other children Play, Laugh, and feel Love.
