Together, they raised more than $10,000 for the cause.

In three years, Saves for a Cure has raised more than $17,000 to help fight childhood cancer.

SAVES FOR A CURE MAKES HUGE DONATION

Saves For a Cure made its first donation yesterday, with the charity's CEO (and one of Brockport's greatest hockey players) Todd Sheridan presenting a $15,000 check to the Galisano Childrens Hospital at Strong.
