Laquon Treadwell hosts breast cancer survivor high tea with Indiana Women In Need
Colts wide receiver Laquon Treadwell and his Lead the Way Foundation partnered with Indiana Women In Need on a Breast Cancer Awareness Month high tea for survivors and their daughters, including a luncheon, jewelry-making and gift bags.
Summary
The Indianapolis Colts reported on October 23, 2026, that wide receiver Laquon Treadwell was named the NFLPA’s Week 7 Community MVP after a concrete local service event tied to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Treadwell partnered with Indiana Women In Need through his Lead the Way Foundation to host a high tea attended by breast cancer survivors and their daughters. The gathering included a luncheon, jewelry-making activities and gift bags. The same event also connected Treadwell’s health-focused outreach with his youth leadership work: his foundation recognized 14-year-old Kayla as the season’s third Laquon’s Leaders in Training honoree, and she received two Colts game tickets. As part of the Community MVP recognition, the NFLPA will donate $10,000 to Treadwell’s Lead the Way Foundation.
Why it matters
The reported action matters because it paired support for breast cancer survivors and their daughters with a trusted local partner, Indiana Women In Need, rather than a vague awareness message. The event offered a specific setting for family connection and recognition, while the NFLPA donation adds resources to Treadwell’s foundation. The article demonstrates direct service and funding support, though it does not report long-term health outcomes or the number of attendees served.
