Scrimmage
benefits Children’s Hospital
The Bengals annual intrasquad scrimmage, set for 3 p.m. Saturday at
Paul Brown Stadium, is hopefully the start of a championship season. It
is already a championship event because it benefits Cincinnati
Children’s Hospital Medical Center.
When fans arrive at the stadium for the free scrimmage, volunteers from
the Cincinnati Children’s Champion program plan to collect donations.
Every donation generates an extra benefit because the Bengals plan to
add a sizable donation based on the total.
Cincinnati Children’s Champions consist of current and former patients
and their families who share their time and their stories to help
advance the mission of Cincinnati Children’s. These volunteers will
also be present in the seating bowl if fans want to offer donations
during the scrimmage.
The Bengals also plan “Change the Outcome” video packages on the
stadium scoreboards, highlighting the remarkable work that Cincinnati
Children’s offers to children and their families.
“The Bengals are committed to changing the outcome of the football
season with a Super Bowl championship, and that work toward that
outcome continues with our intrasquad scrimmage,” said Katie Blackburn,
Bengals executive vice-president, in a press release. “We also strongly
support Cincinnati Children’s and their tremendous work changing the
outcome to help kids get healthy.”
All money raised from Saturday’s scrimmage benefits the patients and
families cared for by Cincinnati Children’s, making sure that expert
care is available to all children in our community. Regardless of their
family’s ability to pay.
