Colorado Eagles News Release
LOVELAND, Colo. - The Colorado Eagles announced today that their fans helped raise a total of $8,100 for the American Red Cross' Haiti relief efforts. In an attempt to help as quickly as possible, and with just one home game in the near future, the team announced last Friday that it would donate 100 percent of the proceeds from the remaining ticket sales to this past Wednesday's game to the cause.
Through those ticket sales, $7,250 was raised. In addition, a station was set up on the concourse where the Red Cross collected donations and auctioned off a team-signed Eagles plaque. The plaque was sold for $600 and an additional $250 was collected through pure donations.
The entire organization would like to thank its fans for their continued generosity and compassion. The team's next home game will be Friday, Feb. 12 when they return from a seven-game road trip.
