In support of the Orioles' ongoing partnership with Maryland Governor Larry Hogan to raise awareness for childhood cancer and funds for life-saving research, the club today announced that a fundraiser benefiting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and Ronald McDonald House Charities will be extended through the final series of the regular season Friday, October 2 through Sunday, October 4 when the Orioles host the New York Yankees. An exclusive ticket offer will allow fans to contribute to the cause while receiving a 50 percent discount on game tickets for any remaining game this season. Fans can take advantage of the offer by visiting www.orioles.com/charity and donating $10 to the cause for each ticket purchased. Through this partnership, announced as part of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the Orioles and Governor Hogan together hope to make a meaningful difference in the fight against pediatric cancer. Governor Hogan is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment to fight non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was diagnosed in June.
