Spreading a little cheer to our vulnerable community this holiday season.
Our U18 Select Kingston Canadians will be collecting monetary donations at our home games from now until December 20 in honour of Jaedyn, a sister of one of our team’s players.
Jaedyn passed away from cancer a few years ago on December 22. The last few seasons we have raised money for Hockey Fights Cancer but this year we are raising money for Jaedyn’s Wish.
On December 22, each year since Jaedyn's passing, the White family has handed out gift bags containing mitts, hand warmers, an Oh Henry bar and a Tim Hortons gift card to people in our vulnerable community downtown. This was something Jaedyn wanted to do while she was having treatments at Sick Kids in Toronto.
The White family is eager to share this with our hockey community in hopes they can connect with more people in need. Our U18 Select players will be joining them this year on December 22 to hand the gift bags out in the community.
Jaedyn’s banner is the one that hangs in the Invista Centre’s MNP rink near our KAMHA office windows.
