Whip Pediatric Cancer

Hockey vs Pediatric Cancer

Local teams laced up and hit the ice to raise money and awareness for children fighting pediatric cancer — and every goal, every fan, and every dollar brought these kids hope.

Jordyn Kreiner turned 13—and chose to celebrate with purpose.

To mark this milestone, Jordyn hosted a charity hockey game in support of Whip Pediatric Cancer, a cause that means so much to her, rallying her community to help children and families facing one of life’s toughest battles.

Whip Pediatric Cancer is a local nonprofit devoted to funding pediatric cancer research while also providing meaningful, hands-on support. From hospital visits and care packages to wish fulfillment and financial assistance, their mission is to bring comfort, hope, and moments of joy when they are needed most.

Thanks to Jordyn and everyone who showed up, her celebration became something truly impactful—supporting brave kids and their families when it mattered most.

Different Teams. One Cause.

To support Whip Pediatric Cancer, the Kreiner family hosted a charity hockey tournament at Clark Gillies Arena.

This community-driven event brought teams from across the hockey community together for a day of competition, compassion, and generosity. Players, families, and supporters took the ice for more than just the game we love — they united for one purpose: standing with children fighting cancer and reminding them they are never alone.

The games took place over Memorial Day Weekend, with the first puck drop on May 23rd — a co-ed, non-checking day of hockey for a cause.
