TAMPA BAY – The Tampa Bay Lightning honored Nicole Marchman as the 31st Lightning Community Hero of the 2015-16 season during the first period of tonight’s game versus the Winnipeg Jets. Marchman, who received a $50,000 donation from the Lightning Foundation and the Lightning Community Heroes program, will donate the money to Wheels of Success.
Tonight’s community hero is notable for changing many lives around the Tampa Bay area. After experiencing abuse as a child, she decided to combat abuse head on by creating the None Lost Movement. The organization gives counseling to youth and local families and support groups to students in order to break the cycle of abuse.
