allCanes launched our U FAMILY shirt a few weeks back as our way of honoring fallen Cane, Bryan Pata. We made the solemn promise that through December 24th, we’d donate $9.50 of every shirt sold to the foundation started by Jeanette Pata and the Pata family.
The 24th has passed, we tallied up the total and we’re proud to let everyone know that allCanes will be donating $11,314.50 to the Pata foundation in honor of Bryan.
This wouldn’t have been possible without the help of our loyal fan base. Again, you reacted positively to an original shirt design of ours and to date we’ve sold just under 1,200 of these tees.
Thank you for all your support. Our shirt and your effort will hopefully help ease some of the Patas’ burden during these very trying times.

Great job Chris and everyone who contributed to this! This is what the media should also be reporting on instead of how they tried to tie this true tragedy to the program and how “bad” the job is. The U is a family and we support each other, that’s all that really matters. Bryan Pata, the person, is the issue here and The U Family cares! Great job once again.
I will proudly be wearing mine New Year’s Eve as I host a small party to watch the game. Thanks again Chris for giving the “simple man” a way to help honor a fallen teammate !!!
As we’ve said before……#95 will never be forgotten !

Yet again, another simply awesome display of the “Family” philosophy that both the University and ALLCanes project and provide.
Keep up the outstanding job that you yourself and everyone at ALLcanes is doing.
We WILL restore the pride in 2007.
Thanks again for all of your efforts.
