The love of hockey brings us all together for a good cause!
Welcome to My Personal Page
In Halifax, hundreds of men, women and children are homeless on any given night. Together we can change this statistic.
Over the next few months, I will be participating in the Hockey Helps the Homeless Canada Life Cup to raise funds and awareness for two local homeless support agencies right here in the city: VETS Canada and Adsum for Women and Children.
As a result of COVID-19, HHTH has had to reimagine what their event could look like in the age of a pandemic. With our safety in mind, they’ve decided to shift from their typical tournament format to a reimagined fundraiser where Canadian communities come together to shutout homelessness.
Right now, Halifax’s homeless need our help more than ever. Homeless shelters in the city have been drained of funding and resources in order to support the new unprecedented costs they are facing as a result of COVID-19 including additional staffing costs, personal protective equipment (PPE), increased sanitation and food security. As we enter the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, our beneficiaries are still recovering from the effects of the first. Since March, they have been working around the clock to ensure our community’s most vulnerable residents are safe. But they can’t do it alone.
Be a game changer today by supporting the cause and help bring hope to our most vulnerable through these difficult times. Hockey tournament or not, we can be bigger than the game.
