Description

In December of 2021 the Charlotte Knights launched a jersey design contest among the patients at Levine Children's Hospital. With the help of Arts for Life, a hospital art program that supports pediatric patients and families, many talented artists took to the pages but one stood above the rest.

Natasha, a thirteen-year-old young girl being treated at Levine Children's Hospital for Osteosarcoma rose to the challenge. She took her love for painting and turned what was once a blank piece of paper into a colorful masterpiece.

In April, Charlotte Knights players surprised Natasha by showing up at her home wearing her designed jersey, bringing this contest full circle.

Natasha's treatment plan has included chemotherapy, transfusions, surgeries, inpatient hospital stays and countless medical appointments but despite everything she has encountered in her young life, she has remained a bright light for those around her. She is a fierce and strong woman in the face of cancer and let's show her how much her community supports her!

The winning bidder* of this game-worn, autographed Levine Children's Hospital Knights jersey will be able to pick up their item at Truist Field (324 S Mint St, Charlotte, NC 28202) during normal business hours (M-F; 9 AM - 5PM) or at an upcoming Charlotte Knights home game following the conclusion of this auction.
