Welcome To The Keane Foundation Website
The Richard M. Keane Foundation was established to create a 9/11 Memorial Sports Center in the Wethersfield community. Richard Keane and two other Wethersfield men died in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11/2001. A Sports Center in their memory is a positive and wonderful way to commemorate life’s happy events, as well as to remember lives lost.
The purpose of the Foundation in collaboration with the Town of Wethersfield, is to provide a safe and fun environment in which youth can come together to participate in athletic, academic, and social programs with the support and guidance of caring adults.

Volunteer Signup for Keane Foundation 5K Race June 4, 2023
Each year, on the first Sunday in June, the Keane Foundation sponsors a 5K race that has become a well-loved town tradition. This year it is being held at 11:00 am on Sunday, June 4th on Garden Street by Hanmer School's playscape. There is a need for volunteers for a few different roles. To help with traffic flow, volunteers are stationed at the non-major intersections during the race to keep all racers on the correct route and provide encouragement. In addition, volunteers staff our food tent and would be responsible for keeping the tables stocked with food, cut into small portions, and supplies filled etc. Timers are needed at the 1 mile and 2 mile marker to tell runners their time. We also need helpers to pass out water along the route. Please sign up below.
