Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews will commit $100,000 to the Chicago Community COVID-19 Response Fund through his personal foundation, the team announced Thursday.
Toews has spent 13 seasons in Chicago, including 12 as the Blackhawks' captain. His donation is intended to match the first $100,000 raised by the team's fans, a figure the club has also matched.
New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist and Montreal Canadiens netminder Carey Price have also made generous donations to help combat the pandemic.
