I am once again skating with my HOTH brothers in this year's 11 Day Power Play Community Shift. This year's skate is only a 3 hour shift, but I hope to raise more than last year for this great cause. My personal goal in 2018 was for $500 and with the unbelievable generosity of friends and family was able to raise a total of $1,235!.
I hope you will consider making a donation, I'm at $1400 so far and hoping to break last year's total and have set a goal of $1,500.
This year I will be playing again in honor of my friend and former neighbor David State, "Stato" is still fighting this terrible disease. I will also be dedicating my Shift to Maryann Rigby​, who has beat cancer after a long hard fight... which really makes our 3 hour shift look trivial!
Thanks again to all that have already donated!
We all have friends and family who have been touched by cancer and know that Roswell is one of the first lines of defense.
Thank you for your consideration.
Our Shift is scheduled for July 12th from 3pm - 6pm, stop in the Harborcenter to watch us skate or join us for our post-game celebration, location TBD.
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.
