Support my participation in the Hockey Helps the Homeless event!
Hello Family and Friends,
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to play my favorite sport for a great cause so I'm signed up for the Hockey Helps the Homeless tournament on November 23rd.
I'm inspired by the few times I was able to help out with a fishing industry group serving lunch to those in need at the downtown east side Salvation Army. There were all kinds of folks lined up for a hot lunch, young and old. Afterwards we toured the housing for people trying to get back on their feet and heard some neat success stories. My (rich) fisherman friend said quietly to me "There, but if not for the grace of God, go I."
If you're able to sponsor me toward my fundraising goal of $600 to help end homelessness in Vancouver that would be super. I've been taking a few cheap penalties lately but in honor of your support I promise to play nice ;)
Thanks so much,
Leslie
