The Florida Everblades raised more than $190,000 for charity programs during the hockey season just completed in April.

Various programs contributed to this number, including themed nights with jersey auctions, fundraiser ticket programs, donations and concession group fundraisers.

The Everblades held three theme nights during the season for which the team wore specialty jerseys that were auctioned off live after the games. The players wore special camouflage jerseys for Military Night on Nov. 13, donned pink jerseys for the annual “Pink in the Rink” night on Feb. 20 and closed out the jersey nights on March 6 with special Boston Red Sox jerseys.

Collectively, the three nights raised more than $51,000 with the largest portion coming from the “Pink in the Rink” – a total of $20,320. The money raised that night helped benefit several cancer charities, including the Cancer Alliance of Naples, Cape Coral Relay for Life, Barbara’s Friends, The Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute and the Susan G. Komen For the Cure fund.

The Blades also helped various youth organizations through ticket fundraising programs. The organization donated just over $20,000 to these groups throughout the season.

Organizations also volunteered to sell concessions during Everblades games to raise money for their own groups or clubs – a total of $120,674.

Since their inception, the Everblades and Germain Arena have donated nearly $1 million to local charities through outreach programs.
