Dear Hockey Community,

After the devastating effects of Hurricane Ian on Southwest Florida, players on the Florida Gulf Coast University ACHA hockey teams need your help to recover from the lasting effects of this storm and return to the ice. 

Several players from our Division II and Division III teams experienced intense wind damage and extreme storm surge flooding, while many others battle through the days without power and running water. This storm has immensely interrupted our players ability to work and continue their college education, and is forcing them to evacuate or face the aftermath at home. On top of these challenges, playing club ice hockey in Florida costs them thousands of dollars, out of pocket. The last stress we want on our players is digging up enough cash to play the sport we all love and cherish. Your donations will help players afford team travel fees that cover flights, hotels and rental vehicles which are a necessity for playing competitive college hockey.
