Breaking: Nicholle Anderson becomes Hockey Fights Cancer ambassador
Twitter

After winning her fight against Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, a rare form of cancer that affects the nose and throat, Nicholle Anderson is now looking to help others.

Now cancer-free, Anderson is ready to help others defeat cancer in partnership with the NHL and NHLPA as an official ambassador for Hockey Fights Cancer throughout November.

“The role entails me working with the NHL, and they’re partnered up with the American Cancer Society and the Canadian Cancer Society. Their focus this year is to raise money and they’re giving back money to these lodges that help cancer patients go through their treatments,” Anderson told Sportsnet. “They stay there for free. It’s a great support group for patients.”

Throughout November, Anderson will bring support by telling stories of patients and those affected by various cancers. The stories will be featured on NHL.com and shared on social media using the hashtag #HockeyFightsCancer.

What a great way to come together and support loved ones affected by cancer. 

Congratulations to Nicholle and the Anderson family.
