Past Events
Andrew Sullivan Rising Sun Award
The Harbor Head Tennis Club is a special place to Christina’s family. Both Christina and Connor grew up as avid tennis players, and for Christina, every summer was spent on the courts at HHTC. In 2025, the club established a deeply meaningful tribute to their son, Andrew, by creating an annual award in his honor.
The award is presented by the coach to the junior player who demonstrates the most improvement in his or her tennis skills over the course of the summer. It is given in memory of Andrew Sullivan, by his parents, Christina & Connor Sullivan.
This recognition is especially meaningful because it celebrates perseverance, growth, and the joy of learning — qualities at the heart of Andrew’s legacy. Each summer, a new recipient will carry forward his memory, serving as a reminder that progress and passion, both on and off the court, can leave a lasting impact.
This year’s recipient, Nicky Chamberlain, was presented by Andrew’s aunts and grandmother, Ella, Hayley and Astrid Womble, along with HHTC coach, Mykala Seitz.
The Great Saunter
On May 4, 2025, Rise for Rew took on The Great Saunter, a 32-mile walk around the perimeter of Manhattan to honor the life of Andrew Henley Sullivan and raise awareness for SIDS. The day began with 30 people rising for Rew at the starting line, more than 50 participants joined the walk in Andrew’s memory, and 18 walkers completed all 32 miles. What started as a $5,000 goal turned into a remarkable achievement, with the Foundation raising over $33,000 to support SIDS research and bereavement care.
1st Annual Rise for Rew Paddle Tournament
On January 14, 2025, the Rise for Rew Foundation hosted the 1st Annual Rise for Rew Paddle Tournament at Woodway Country Club in Darien, CT. The event brought together an incredible community of supporters, with over 130 attendees and 42 teams competing for the Sun Cup in memory of Andrew Henley Sullivan. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of players, spectators, and sponsors, the tournament raised over $17,000 to support SIDS research, bereavement resources, and the continued mission of the Rise for Rew Foundation.
