the GR8 Chase for Victory over Cancer
Alex Ovechkin Announces “THE GR8 CHASE for Victory Over Cancer"
Alex Ovechkin, the Washington Capitals, Hockey Fights Cancer™ and the V Foundation for Cancer Research are Partnering to Raise Funds for Pediatric Cancer Research
As part of THE GR8 CHASE for Victory Over Cancer® campaign, Ovechkin will donate an amount equal to his career goal total for every goal he scores during the remainder of his NHL career, starting with Wednesday’s Capitals game against the New York Rangers. Ovechkin’s donations will be matched by Monumental Sports & Entertainment, meaning each goal scored will bring a donation that is double his career goal total at that time. Ovechkin is inviting fans to make an impact alongside him. Fans can support THE GR8 CHASE by donating $8, or any amount they can give, in honor of his historic pursuit of the NHL’s all-time goals record.
