What is Hockey Fights Cancer?

Founded in 1998 by the National Hockey League® and the National Hockey League Players' Association, Hockey Fights Cancer™ (HFC) unites the hockey community in support of cancer patients and their families. The initiative gets an assist from players, coaches, officials, equipment managers, front office staff, corporate partners, and fans. Together, the hockey family looks to inspire hope and courage for those who are living with, going through and moving past cancer.

November is the Hockey Fights Cancer Month across the NHL. Each of the 32 teams will celebrate their own Hockey Fights Cancer Night during the 2023/2024 season. The Winnipeg Jets will host theirs on Tuesday, November 28th, 2023 vs the Dallas Stars.

Winnipeg Jets Hockey Fights Cancer Night

The Winnipeg Jets Hockey Fights Cancer Night will be hosted on Tuesday, November 28th, 2023. That night, the Winnipeg Jets will convert all their rinkboards and in-game visual media to lavender in order to generate increased awareness for the cause. A special ceremonial puck drop will take place prior to the start of the game, recognizing a few of the pediatric patients that are currently under the care of Cancer Care Manitoba.

JOIN THE FIGHT

You can join the fight by making a donation to the Hockey Fights Cancer campaign at www.biggestfans.ca or by texting CARE to 20222

As well, team-issued, limited edition, autographed lavender jerseys will go up for auction Thursday, December 7th and closes on Sunday, December 17th.

All funds are in support of the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation and their pediatric clinical trials!

OUR CHARITABLE PARTNER

All proceeds raised will be directed to CCMF pediatric clinical trials. CCMF funds nearly a significant proportion of the cost of clinical trials for children and teens with cancer, making leading-edge treatments available and accessible locally. Manitoba continues to have one of the highest participation rate of pediatric trials in the country, due in large part due to the significant donations CCMF directs to this effort year after year. All funds raised by CCMF, including through the Jets' HFC campaign, stay in our province to benefit pediatric patients and their families. Visit cancercarefdn.mb.ca for more information.
