The SJFHL has six teams across the province, with 125 players aged 18 to 22.
The community continues to rally around Carmichael Outreach in the wake of a recent robbery at the non-profit organization’s office.
On Friday, the South Saskatchewan Community Foundation said an anonymous donor had given $14,000 to Carmichael Outreach to help it recover from the robbery.
“The concern, quick action and generosity of this caring individual allows us to continue our important work in the community and provide our Carmichael family with the care and support they need,” Bettyann Cox, the chief executive officer of Carmichael Outreach, said in a media release.
“Our entire team is inspired by this kind-hearted donation, and the encouragement and outpouring support provided during this challenging time. We are ever grateful.”
A thief made off with laptops and a safe filled with gift cards and gift certificates during the break-in at Carmichael Outreach’s office on 12th Avenue. Cox previously estimated the value of the items stolen at about $25,000.
“This anonymous donor’s quick, heartfelt response is inspiring and demonstrates a tremendous example of the impact of our whole community’s focus on wellbeing,” said Donna Ziegler, the executive director of the foundation.
“We are proud to serve as a bridge to help meet the community’s needs and extend appreciation to Carmichael Outreach for all its work, especially now.”
