Hi everyone,

As some of you know, our family has been going through an incredibly difficult time. Our dad suffered a sudden cardiac arrest in March and was in the hospital for over 10 days. He was placed on ECMO and lost his right leg during the fight for his life. It’s been a heartbreaking and overwhelming time for all of us. He's home now and recovering, but there is a long road ahead with a prosthetic and continued medical costs for his heart condition.

In the midst of all this, we’re trying to keep my 11 year old brother in hockey for this upcoming travel season.

Mark has a deep love for hockey and wants to be a hockey player when he grows up. It’s his passion, his community, and his outlet. But with everything going on, we’re simply not in a place financially to afford the upcoming season on our own.

We’re reaching out to ask for your support in helping Mark stay on the ice this year. Every dollar helps and will go towards the cost of equipment, travel, and fees as my brother and I will travel with him to tournaments. If you’ve ever met Mark, you know how much this means to him, and how hard he works both on and off the ice.

We’re so grateful for the support of our friends, family, and community. If you’re able to donate or even just share this, it would mean the world to us.
