2021 Winnipeg Tournament: Mr. James Powell

Welcome to My Personal Page

On any given night, there are over 1,500 people homeless in the Winnipeg area. Together, I'm confident we can change this statistic.

On December 3rd, I will be participating in the 2nd Annual Hockey Helps the Homeless Winnipeg Tournament, raising awareness and funding for 3 very deserving local homelessness support agencies which are:

Resource Assistance for Youth Inc. (RaY)

Resource Assistance for Youth, Inc. (RaY) is a non-profit agency working with street-entrenched and homeless youth up to the age of 29. RaY offers several programs and services aimed at helping youth get the supports they need and gain critical life skills including housing, drop-in meals, street outreach, work placements and more.

Willow Place

Willow Place is Manitoba’s largest family violence shelter, serving over 800 women and children on average annually. Willow Place provides a 24-hour crisis line and emergency shelter to women and children leaving violent family situations in Winnipeg. The organization also offers individual and group counselling as well as outreach and prevention services at no cost to the individuals that it serves.

Red Road Lodge

Located in the heart of Winnipeg’s homeless community, the Red Road Lodge provides dry, safe, transitional housing to individuals affected by homelessness in the Winnipeg community. Many of the individuals that it serves are suffering from addictions, substance abuse and mental health issues, which is why Red Road Lodge also provides critical Life Skills and Employment Programs that support the recovery and long-term success of the people that it serves.

There’s more than one story when it comes to how people end up homeless and that’s why there is more than one way to help. Hockey Helps the Homeless invests in solutions that ensure fewer individuals and families end up on the streets. We support organizations and programs committed to ending homelessness through housing, transportation initiatives, mental health support, education, health and wellness, training and employment, but we need your help.

Be a game changer today by supporting the cause and help bring hope to our most vulnerable!

Wish to donate by cheque? Cheques should be made payable to Hockey Helps the Homeless and mailed to Head Office at 44 East Beaver Creek, Unit #4, Richmond Hill, Ontario, L4B 1G8. Please specify player name in the memo line. Tax receipts will be issued upon receipt of the donation for all gifts $25 and above.
