Minnesota Aurora is proud to partner with WeAre8 and NAMI this season to advocate for mental health and raise money for their life saving services plus bring awareness to the 988 Suicide and Prevention Hotline.
The partnership has several integrations with Aurora and WeAre8.
- For every goal Aurora scores this season, WeAre8 will donate $100 to NAMI as part of Aurora’s Goals for Good campaign.
- When fans join WeAre8 and opt in to watch commercials from Aurora partners, money will be donated to NAMI.
- New warm up shirts will be worn by Aurora before every game highlighting 988 on the front. At the end of the season, the players will sign the tops and they will be auctioned off with proceeds going directly to NAMI.
