Cancer has certainly impacted the lives of many of my friends and family; unfortunately most people I know share similar stories about this terrible disease. On Tuesday July 9th from 6-9PM, I will be playing in a 3 hour long hockey game with friends and co-workers as part of a larger 11 day event to raise awareness and funding for Cancer research. I appreciate any support you could provide for this cause that is near and dear to my heart. I will be playing in honor of those that I have lost to Cancer, those that are still struggling with Cancer, and those that have survived their battle with Cancer.
This summer, more than 2,500 pairs of skates will hit the ice to play in the 2019 11 Day Power Play Community Shift to help in the fight against cancer! The 11-day game will be played in continuous shifts at Harborcenter in Buffalo, NY. This important event supports The 11 Day Power Play, raising critically-needed funds for cancer research and wellness programs at Roswell Park, Camp Good Days and Make-A-Wish WNY. While it is physically challenging to play in a marathon hockey game, it's a walk in the park compared to what most endure in their battle against cancer. Cancer is a disease that touches everyone, and The 11 Day Power Play wants to make an impact in our community. In the past two years, The 11 Day Power Play has raised nearly $2.5 million supporting cancer causes in Western New York.
Donations are graciously accepted online or by check. Please write checks out to 'The 11 Day Power Play' and send to PO Box 4, Buffalo, NY 14223. If you are interested in a sponsorship, contact Sara Schumacher today.
