Don Cherry - Kidney Foundation Jerseys

Many Canadians are dying needlessly waiting for an organ transplant. Once a world leader in organ donation, Canada has dropped to 23rd.

Close to 5000 Canadians are waiting for an organ donation today - 80% need a kidney. Of those, 40% will never get one and or die waiting.

The Cherry family knows first-hand about organ donation. Don’s son, Tim, received a kidney transplant from daughter, Cindy, while Don was coaching the Boston Bruins. RE/MAX has a long history of supporting Organ Donation Awareness.

Together, RE/MAX and the WHL have a great opportunity to work with the Cherry family to increase awareness of Organ Donation throughout Western Canada through the hosting of this WHL League-Wide Theme Night initiative.

The Medicine Hat Tigers wore Don Cherry themed jerseys on March 9th and are auctioning them off with all proceeds going to the local chapter of the Kidney Foundation.

Founded in 1970. 5-time WHL Champions. 2-time Memorial Cup Champions.
