Every Little Bit Helps

With the revelation that Bruin rookie Phil Kessel is being treated for testicular cancer sending shockwaves through the hockey world and this being the season for giving, I thought I'd make it easy on everyone to get in the spirit by providing links to donate to two of a nearly-infinite number of worthy causes.

The first is the Lance Armstrong Foundation for cancer research (for obvious reasons) and the second is a personal charity of choice, Athletes Against Autism, the organization founded by Olie Kolzig, Byron Dafoe and Scott Mellanby to raise awareness and funds for autism research, treatment and education programs.

Literally, every dollar helps, so pass on that latte this morning and give what you can. And say a prayer for Phil Kessel and anyone else you know - personally or otherwise - who is facing a similar uphill battle.
