On October 1st of this year, I have the opportunity once again to combine two of my passions -- Changing Lives and Playing Hockey -- as I captain a team in the Stars Big Heart tournament for a great cause. Many former NHL players donate their time to this event to lace up their skates to make a difference (and to remind the rest of why they are pros and we are not).
I am so grateful for the overwhelming support we have received for these events the past 2 years support American Heart Association (2019) and Children's Medical Center (2020). For the 2021 event, we will be supporting American Cancer Society -- specifically their HERO initiative where the goal is health equity, ensuring everyone has access to screenings and saving lives.
Over the past 2 events we raised a total of nearly $50K as a team ... $20K the first year and $30K last year ... so we are challenging ourselves to do at least $40K this year. We know these past 18 months have been challenging times for everyone, but we pray our supporters are able to contribute so generously once again.
THANK YOU in advance for your generosity!
Ryan
