SOUTH BEND, Ind. (WSBT) — A hockey game at the Compton Family Ice Arena for a cause!
Pucks for Autism took on the Detroit Red Wings Alumni on Saturday to raise funds for Camp Millhouse.
The event sponsors children with disabilities to come out and do what they love.
Last Year, they raised $10,000 for Camp Millhouse & $3000 for Pucks for Autism, and this year they want to do it again.
“The funds that come in are helping support the activity of the Pucks for Autism, and they offer so much to the people with disabilities in different programs, whether it be Millhouse here in Indiana or other programs in other states,” said volunteer David Pierce.
Pucks for Autism is a non-profit organization that hosts various adult hockey games and tournaments to help raise acceptance and support for children and adults on the Autism spectrum.
They also held a vendor Market & a Sports Card/Pokémon Trade Show inside the Compton Family Ice Arena from 12 pm-7 pm.
This year, the tournament has raised over $40,000.
