#12Challenge
Everything Counts
Join the Nichols and Buffalo community in raising money for
One Last Goal with this year’s virtual fundraiser!
In lieu of a live fundraiser similar to the Charity Hockey Game in 2019, One Last Goal and Nichols School will be hosting a virtual event this year, the 12 Challenge.
As a nod to Matt’s jersey number for Nichols Hockey, we are encouraging participants to document themselves performing 12 of anything physical - 12 push-ups, 12 sit-ups, 12k run, EVERYTHING COUNTS. Once you’re done, post it to social media using the hashtag #12challenge!
How to Participate
There are three ways to contribute to the cause this year!
Purchase a Shirt
Support the cause by purchasing a limited-edition One Last Goal and Nichols School branded long-sleeved t-shirt, available for $30 through February 12th. The proceeds will directly benefit the One Last Goal Foundation. Both Mens and Women’s shirts are available.
Everyone is welcome to purchase a shirt regardless of your participation in the 12 Challenge.
NOTE: THE STORE IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
“12 Challenge”
As a nod to Matt’s jersey number for Nichols Hockey, we are encouraging participants to perform 12 of ANYTHING physical and post their challenge to social media between February 1st-12th using the hashtag #12challenge. From 12 sit-ups, to 12 free throws, or a 12-mile run for the super-ambitious, everything counts, and creativity is encouraged, and don’t forget to challenge your friends!
Optionally, we encourage everyone to send a copy of their video to joeavino@gmail.com or 716-392-8486 for inclusion in a video montage at the conclusion of the virtual event.
Contribute Directly
For those who do not wish to partake in the challenge, or would like to contribute more, we thank you for your generosity! The GoFundMe will be open for the duration of the challenge and we graciously accept any and all additional donations you wish to contribute.
