Predators game to raise cancer funds
When the Nashville Predators hockey team hits the ice Thursday, Oct. 21, fans can score an assist when it comes to childhood cancer.
A portion of the proceeds from the Predators game against the Pittsburgh Penguins will benefit the Vanderbilt Childhood Cancer Program.
The game will be at 7 p.m. at Bridgestone Arena.
A silent auction during the game also will benefit the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
Last season, the Predators raised $125,000 for Children's Hospital, endowing a pediatric cancer research fund and supporting other programs.
This season they are expanding their efforts by allowing hockey fans to give all season at www.nashvillepredators.com/beatcancer.
In addition, a bone marrow donor registration drive held during the game can help save lives.
