Rogers Communications, the National Hockey League (NHL), and the
National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) today announced
the launch of the 4 Nations Face-Off 50/50 presented by Rogers.
Cumulative proceeds from the raffle will benefit Sun Youth, a
Montreal-based organization dedicated to supporting children and
families in need.
Rogers, the NHL, and the NHLPA have kickstarted the 50/50
jackpot with a joint $50,000 contribution, encouraging all fans in
Quebec to rally behind the fundraising initiative, with raffle
tickets available for purchase in-arena and online. Rogers is the
presenting partner of the 4 Nations Face-Off 50/50 in Montreal,
with all proceeds going to Sun Youth’s Hockey Development program,
which helps remove financial barriers to hockey to ensure more
local youth can play the game they love.
“Rogers is deeply committed to investing in Quebec and making a
positive impact on our communities through the power of sport,”
said Édith Cloutier, Regional President for Quebec, Rogers. “We’re
excited to rally the province around 4 Nations Face-Off to help Sun
Youth break down barriers and give more young people in Montreal
the chance to play hockey.”
Rogers will also provide Sun Youth participants with
once-in-a-lifetime experiences at 4 Nations Face-Off, including a
skills clinic on NHL ice, and unique access to their favourite
Canadian players.
“This support from Rogers, the NHL, and the NHLPA will have a
profound impact on the children and families we serve,” said
Guinness Rider, Director of Community Services and Athletics, Sun
Youth. “Hockey has the power to inspire and unite communities, and
with these 50/50 proceeds, we can help make the game accessible to
a greater number of deserving youth in Montreal.”
Sun Youth has been a pillar in the Montreal community for over
70 years, providing essential services and programs to
underprivileged youth and families. Through initiatives like this,
the organization continues to foster inclusion and opportunity for
all through hockey.
“Hockey has the ability to unite us. The NHL is thrilled to
partner with Rogers and the NHLPA on this impactful 4 Nations
Face-Off program that will help unlock access and inspire the next
generation of fans,” said Sophie Kotsopoulos, NHL Group VP,
Partnership Marketing. “Rogers, a longstanding and deeply committed
NHL partner, has always been at the forefront of creating impactful
initiatives to support the communities, fans and customers they
serve.”
“NHL Players have a long history of giving back to the game of
hockey, the game that they are deeply passionate about and has
provided them with many opportunities,” said Rob Zepp, NHLPA Senior
Director, International Strategy & Growth. “Whether it be
through programs like NHLPA Goals & Dreams or partnering with
Rogers and the NHL on this impactful contribution to the 4 Nations
Face-Off 50/50 raffle that will benefit Sun Youth Hockey, the
Players are thrilled to continue to support the communities where
they live and play.”
