While creating a legacy on the ice, he’s also dedicated to leaving a lasting impact on childhood cancer research.
For the remainder of his career, Alex is personally donating to pediatric cancer research for each goal he scores and his donations will be matched by Monumental Sports & Entertainment! 100% of funds raised go to lifesaving childhood cancer research through the V Foundation and Hockey Fights Cancer™. The donations raised will fund a childhood cancer research grant through the V Foundation in Ovechkin’s honor: the Alex Ovechkin GR8 Chase Pediatric Cancer Research Grant.
