Milan Lucic releases children’s book “Not Cool To Bully In School”  March 18, 2014 (Boston, MA): Boston Bruins left winger Milan Lucic & his wife Brittany have released a hardcover children’s book encouraging kids not to bully in school. As a member of the Board of Advisors of the Celebrities For Charity Foundation, Milan continues his support of the community and Celebrities For Charity. Align Credit Union has sponsored the book and all proceeds from the sale of the book, including autographed copies, will go directly to the Celebrities For Charity Foundation.  “I am very excited for the opportunity to release this children’s book with my wife and friends. I have been witness to many different types of bullying growing up, and it is something that is unfortunately still a problem in schools. I am hoping this book will help shed light on the issue and will make kids realize that bullying is not the right thing to do and friends of bullies should let them know the same.  The proceeds from my book sales will benefit the Celebrities For Charity Foundation, which I have worked closely with during my time in Boston. Through CFC and the use of my suite at the TD Garden we have supported over 50 charities this season and these charities have netted approximately $200,000. I am hoping this book makes a positive impact on the community as well. Thank you to Align Credit Union for sponsoring this book and being so generous to the community.” – Milan Lucic, Celebrities For Charity Board of Advisors  "The concepts in book title - teamwork, dedication, and standing up for what you believe in - are very much aligned with who we are as a company and an industry. Sponsoring the book has been a unique opportunity to work with Milan Lucic and Celebrities for Charity to connect with kids in the communities we serve." - Align Credit Union President and CEO Ken Del Rossi  Book Availability: Books are on sale at the Boston Bruins Pro Shop, Fan Zone Shops at TD Garden, and the Scoreboard Sports Bar & Grill in Woburn.
