CANCER STINKS!
Like a crusty old hockey bag filled with ripe equipment, it's just rotten.
Sadly, cancer has hit all of us like a dirty check from behind.
Family, friends, classmates, coworkers - and maybe even yourself - have battled this horrible disease punch for punch. Some have pounded it to smithereens, while others lost the fight, but shine on in our hearts.
To help shut out cancer once and for all, some lifelong friends and I are once again throwing on our smelly old gear to participate in the 11-Day Power Play Community Shift.
Last year we raised over $17,000!!
This year we'll play a continuous 3-hour shift at HarborCenter in Buffalo on July 7 from 9 p.m. - midnight.
It would be great if you came down to cheer us on! It would be even better if you made a financial contribution! You can easily donate using the button off to the right.
Your much-appreciated donation will help support critical research, facilitate wellness programs, and improve the quality of life for kids, adults and families affected by cancer.
Can I count on you to help me kick cancer out of the game?
Many thanks,
Tim
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.
