My goal is to raise over $10,000 for the Ronald McDonald House of Seattle! Your donations are tax-deductible and I will begin tracking my progress this week on my blog. Please let me know if you are interested in making a donation to support the Windows Hockey Team and more importantly the Ronald McDonald House of Seattle.

This year, the Windows Hockey Team is selling jerseys identical to the ones worn by the team.  The jerseys are sold for $100 each and can contain your name and desired number.  If you are interested in purchasing a jersey (youth or adult size), please contact me for details.  The profits on the jerseys are tax-deductible and will support the Windows Hockey Team fundraising efforts.

About the Challenge:
The annual RMHC Hockey Challenge is one of the primary fundraisers for Seattle’s Ronald McDonald House.  Proceeds from the Hockey Challenge weekend and activities directly support operations at the House, enabling families with critically ill children undergoing treatment at Children’s Hospital to have a safe and home-like environment regardless of their financial situation.
 
The Hockey Challenge began in 1998, when hockey-playing Microsoft employees, with the help of the Seattle Thunderbirds, took an in-house rivalry public and decided to raise money for a good cause at the same time.  In 2001, Microsoft made a $2 million pledge to support the construction of expanded Seattle Ronald McDonald House facilities, and vowed to hold the Hockey Challenge event each year to raise money until the pledge was met.  The $2 million pledge was fulfilled in 2003, and the Hockey Challenge continues!  Hockey Challenge 2006 is an RMHC-managed event that has tremendous momentum and support from the local and national community, including Celebrity Chair Kiefer Sutherland.  Thanks to the continued support of Microsoft, the Seattle Thunderbirds, celebrities, sponsors, NHL alumni and hockey enthusiasts, RMHC hopes to raise $300,000 in 2006.
