Fans who donate canned food items at the iWireless Center will receive coupons good $1 off the price of a walk-up ticket to Friday's game for each item donated (up to a maximum of $3 off per ticket). Canned food items will be donated to Christian Care Domestic Violence Shelter and Rescue Mission in Rock Island. Christian Care was founded in 1916 to serve the least, the last, and the lost.
