In November, we kicked off Hockey Fights Cancer, an initiative created by the NHL and the NHLPA to unite the hockey community in support of cancer patients and their families. We raised over $100,000 for the 365 Pediatric Cancer Fund presented by Twice Daily, which raises funds and awareness for the vital cancer research that takes place at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt. Our goal is to encourage every single Preds fan to contribute to this campaign - through a donation, purchasing an item at our HFC store, posting who you fight for or visiting our HFC social posts.
We are proud to partner with the NHL and their league-wide initiative that will celebrate the fight against cancer as we host Hockey Fights Cancer Nights on Saturday, Nov. 19 and Saturday, March 25! We encourage all fans to join us in our celebration; here are a few ways you can be involved:
1. Click here to make a donation to the 365 Pediatric Cancer Fund presented by Twice Daily.
2. Purchase a Hockey Fights Cancer ticket package to our HFC Night games on November 19 and March 25 - each package includes a $10 donation to the 365 Fund and a Preds-branded Hockey Fights Cancer beanie!
3. Bid on items in our silent auction by texting PREDS to 76278. The auction will be live Friday, Nov. 18 and will feature HFC jerseys worn by the Nashville Predators team, plates decorated by patients at Children's Hospital, player headshots drawn by Children's Hospital patients and much more.
4. Purchase a lavender "I Fight For Foam" puck in honor, or in memory, of someone fighting cancer. For $10, the buyer will receive one puck and one will be added to the Hockey Fights Cancer net at Bridgestone Arena, which represents all those we are fighting for in Smashville. Stop by the Foundation table (Section 106/107) during a Preds game to purchase.
