Hey Everyone,
This year I've been given the opportunity to take part in the 11-Day Power Play and help join the fight against cancer. This is an amazing event that I've been able to watch grow over the past few years and I'm beyond excited to be able to participate and help make a difference.
Most recently my family has been impacted by this awful disease with the passing of my aunt, Donna Standish-Ashbery. I would like to participate in this event in her memory as well as helping work towards a cure.
This is an incredible opportunity to be part of something bigger than life. I get to play the game I love and positively impact countless others. But I can't do this alone! I need your help in raising money for this cause, to continue building on the foundation the previous games have created for us.
I am reaching out to all of my family, friends, friends of family, and friends of friends to offer any support you can. Every dollar can help make a difference. For my 3-hour shift, I have a personal goal of raising $1,100 and would appreciate any help you can contribute to my goal (even if it just means sharing this on social media)!
#MoreThanAGame
Thank you in advance,
Aaron

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.
