About:
We had about 20 players from each team working on the fundraiser and playing in the game. Brookline also had about 10 players from our JV game helping out with day of game events (raffle, bake sale, chuck-a-puck)
Players were asked to raise money through an online fundraiser and then both teams helped with decorating the rink and each player created a poster in honor of someone they knew that had been affected by cancer. These posters were hung around the rink on the day of the game. I believe we raised about $2000 for the American Cancer Society through our online fundraiser and day-of-game fundraising events.
This has been something that we have done for several years. It is such a great organization and worthy cause, and it gives our players a chance to give back to the community.
