Carolina Hurricanes alternate captain Jordan Staal and his wife, Heather, created the Staal Family Foundation suite to give children battling cancer and their families the opportunity to experience a hockey game in a 12-person, all-inclusive luxury suite. Jordan personally purchases the suite for each Hurricanes home game, and each child receives a Staal Family Foundation t-shirt.
