Ryan Miller Legacy Fund

Ryan Miller's on-ice contributions to the Buffalo Sabres organization include saves and statistics that made him a fan favorite, but his connection to the people of Buffalo solidified his stance as a true Hall of Famer.

During Miller's Sabres Hall of Fame and jersey retirement ceremony, the team announced the creation of the Ryan Miller Legacy Fund, an endowment established at Roswell Park to benefit pediatric cancer patients.

This gift from the Sabres, who are longtime supporters and champions of Roswell Park and of the Courage of Carly Fund and its related programs, will grow year over year through support from the team, players and staff, and fans.

The purpose of the fund is to establish a permanent source of revenue for the Courage of Carly Fund at Roswell Park to ensure support for program and psychosocial and diversionary initiatives for pediatric patients and their family members.
