The Canadian Cancer Society, along with the Peterborough Petes, have announced that Pink in the Rink 2021 has raised $23,850 and counting.
This year's event brings the total amount raised in 12 years to $812,099. Their partnership with Your TV allowed for them to share a unique opening ceremony, impactful intermission shows and a final wrap up as well as a chance to relive the Pink in the Rink 2020 game.
Although this year presented numerous challenges, including the game being postponed due to the pandemic, the community continued to support the event through online donations, merchandise sales and the online auction.
While the goal that was set of $40,000 was not reached, the committee is proud they continue to be the most successful OHL/Canadian Cancer Society partnership in Ontario and that they were able to continue to raise vital funds for women's cancer research.
