This season the Blues donated $60,000 to make a Power Play for United Way! Blues executives and staff, as well as fans, contributed to the total amount!

The Blues celebrated United Way Night during the Friday, October 12th game vs. Colorado Avalanche. Fans had the opportunity to purchase tickets through a special offer, with $5 - $20 going back to the United Way.

Volunteers sold autographed pucks to fans and staffed a special silent auction to benefit United Way. The auction included some great items such as plaza center tickets and a trip to the KMOX booth, autographed Paul Kariya stick, autographed Barret Jackman life-size stand-up and a Keith Tkachuk game-used stick. Blues fans unable to attend the game were invited to call the Power Play for United Way Hotline to contribute. A few lucky fans that contributed during United Way Night walked away with a team autographed jersey or stick!

This contribution will help nearly 200 local charities that strengthen families, invest in children and build safer neighborhoods in our community. For more information on the United Way please visit www.stl.unitedway.org.
