Panthers’ AJ Greer brings smiles to young patients at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital

**Florida Panthers Forward AJ Greer Visits Young Patients at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital**

HOLLYWOOD, FLA. (WSVN) — Florida Panthers forward AJ Greer recently made a heartfelt visit to young patients at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood. The Stanley Cup champion spent Thursday afternoon meeting with children, signing autographs, and posing for photos.

The visit was organized by AutoNation as part of its DRV PNK initiative, which supports cancer research and treatment. Among the patients Greer met was 18-year-old Takobe, who is undergoing treatment for a rare and aggressive tumor.

Thanks to the collaboration between AutoNation and the Panthers, Takobe and his family will be attending an upcoming Panthers game as VIP guests. Their experience will include luxury seats, a Zamboni ride, and a post-game meet-and-greet with players.

Greer shared that his commitment to children’s health is deeply personal, inspired by his brother’s childhood illness. “No one deserves to go through what some of these kids are going through,” Greer said. “It’s heartbreaking, but to be able to have a platform as a professional athlete and to have a platform like the organization of the Florida Panthers, and to be able to come out here and support these children and give them a few gifts, and like I said, just spend some time with them, change their thoughts.”

Through its DRV PNK initiative, AutoNation has raised and donated more than $45 million to advance life-saving cancer research, treatment, and survivorship initiatives.
