Scott Willard’s Super Bowl party has become an annual tradition in Elmira.

Every year he throws a big bash to celebrate the big game and fundraise for the Grand River Hospital Foundation’s Cancer Centre.

Last year the community helped raise $5,000.

They more than doubled that amount at this year’s party.

Willard and his family presented an $11,000 cheque to the hospital this week.

Supporting cancer research is a personal passion of Willard. His first wife died from the disease 18 years ago.
