By accessing the unique power and compassion of the hockey community, they celebrate life and provide help in times of need. In January of 2011, a small group of adult recreation league hockey players decided to create a foundation to help others. What started as an idea to honor a fallen friend and make a difference has blossomed into an important resource for families in need. DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation is a non-profit dedicated to providing opportunities for person with and without disabilities to gain confidence and independence through participation in national and international amateur ice hockey events and to support local, national and international amateur ice hockey players and their families in times of crisis. This year’s tournament and survivor games theme is giving back through lifesaving and healing gifts of organ donation- there are a number of individuals who are participating this year who are organ recipients, living donors, donor families and other directly impacted by organ, eye and tissue donation.
