Thank you for visiting my page and considering a donation! I am extremely excited to be participating in the 2018 11 Day Power Play Community shift. On July 12, 2012 I lost my Gramma to colon cancer and for that reason I will be competing for her. Our shift will be July 14 which will mark six years since we lost her.
This year’s event will feature almost 2,000 different players who will all be skating their respective four hour shifts. Our shift will take place July 14 from 2pm-6pm. Hockey is such a great sport and one in which so many people can come together and support a cause. I cannot think of a better cause to support than this.
Cancer effects so many people every single day. Your donation will help Roswell Park, Camp Good Days and Make a Wish of Western New York which all make a huge difference for everyone that the disease touches. Please consider giving a donation, volunteering for or playing in the event. Your donation is tax free.
Thank you for your consideration!

This summer, more than 1,700 pairs of skates will hit the ice to play in the 2018 11 Day Power Play Community Shift to help in the fight against cancer! The 11-day game will be played in continuous, four-hour shifts at HarborCenter in Buffalo, New York. Each shift will feature two new teams. The purpose of this important event is to raise critically-needed funds for important local cancer causes, including: cutting-edge cancer research and wellness programs at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center; supporting programs that improve quality of life for children, adults and families affected by cancer through Camp Good Days; and, granting wishes and amazing experiences to kids with life-threatening illnesses, including cancer, by Make-A-Wish Western New York. Although it may be physically challenging for our players to play four continuous hours of hockey, it will be a walk in the park compared to what some people have to endure in their battle against cancer. Cancer is a disease that touches everyone, and The 11 Day Power Play wants to make a difference, a big difference. You can help make a big difference by supporting our players' efforts in The 11 Day Power Play Community Shift.
As part of our fundraising efforts, we also offer various corporate sponsorships, providing value greatly in excess of the financial contribution. Please contact Sara Schumacher at sara@11daypowerplay.com or 716-830-3805 for more information. Team sponsorships start at $1,100 and are first come, first serve.
Proceeds of the 11 Day Power Play Community Shift will benefit our local families while supporting cancer research and wellness programs at Roswell Park, Make-A-Wish WNY and Camp Good Days.
Donations are graciously accepted either online or by check. Please write checks out to 'The 11 Day Power Play' and send to PO Box 4 Buffalo NY 14223.
