Warriors Season Opener Raises $2,500 for Maria Fareri Children's Hospital

We extend our deepest appreciation to Westchester Warriors Hockey youth players for raising $2,500 at their season opener on April 20!  Contributions for the 2019 season will support the Cellular and Tissue Engineering Laboratory (CTEL) within the Children and Adolescent Cancer and Blood Disease Center at Maria Fareri Children's Hospital. CTEL creates and provides patient-specific life-saving therapies for pediatric oncology patients.

Over 300 families and players attended the game, which featured a puck drop by Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano. ShopRite in Tuckahoe generously donated bottled water and snacks for guests. To learn more about the Westchester Warriors youth hockey players' fundraising efforts, visit http://westchester-warriors-hockey-2019.everydayhero.do/
