Evgeni Malkin's 'I'm Score for Kids' initiative has helped donate nearly $100,000 towards the Ronald McDonald House charity.
Malkin's campaign is based on a donation of $710 for each point he scores and this past season his 67 points brought a total of $47,750 and McDonald's matched that number, bringing the grand total to $95,140.

"We are incredibly grateful to have this support," said Eleanor Reigel, CEO of Ronald McDonald house Charities of Pittsburgh and Morgantown. "The generosity that is shared through this program brings families much-needed comfort and support when they are far from home with their sick child."
The donations help fund the Ronald McDonald House, which gives families who need travel for children's medical care a place to call home.
