KEARNEY, Neb. - The Tri-City Storm raised $1,056 during three games in February and April with its Jerseys For A Cause program. All proceeds have been donated to the Susan G. Komen foundation.

During 29 games of the Jerseys For A Cause raffle in the 2013-14 season, Storm fans raised a total of $9,718.

The Susan G. Komen foundation is constantly working to fight breast cancer. Money raised by the foundation goes towards detection, treatment and research of the disease.

Presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska, the JFAC program benefitted a different organization each month. During home games, a limited edition pink Storm jersey worn by the team on Oct. 4 was raffled off to fans who donated.

Other organizations receiving funds throughout the season long program included Mary Lanning Healthcare, Phelps Memorial Healthcare, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Relay For Life, and the Good Samaritan Hospital's Kearney Tackles Cancer Fund.

The 2013-14 season was the third year Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska partnered with Tri-City on the JFAC program.
