Board of Directors
Meet the team behind the goal
Our board brings together athletes, community leaders and professionals who share one belief: the cost of equipment or registration fees should never be the reason a child stays off the ice.
Our board
Strategic oversight, every dollar on the ice
The board guides the Foundation’s direction and makes sure donated funds and gear go directly toward removing barriers for young players.

Help lead the way for young players
We’re looking for community members who care about kids, hockey and access to share their time and talents as board members.
Board members help set the Foundation’s direction, oversee how donations are used, build partnerships and champion the mission in the community. You don’t need a hockey background — just a commitment to making the game open to every child.
Experience that helps
- Fundraising and donor relations
- Finance, accounting or legal
- Marketing and communications
- Community outreach and partnerships
- Youth sports, coaching or rink operations
