The Columbus Blue Jackets have announced that captain Nick Foligno and his wife Janelle have made a $1-million donation to the Nationwide and Boston Children's Hospitals.

Their donation is to be split between the two institutions that helped save their 3-year-old daughter Milana, and to support continued research into congenital heart condition.

Milana had experimental open-heart surgery at Boston Children's Hospital when she was three weeks old. She now lives a healthy and happy life.
