IIHF, NHLPA to donate $100k worth of equipment to Ukrainian youth
The International Ice Hockey Federation and National Hockey League Players' Association have joined forces to donate $100,000 worth of equipment to displaced youth in Ukraine.
Equipment has already begun to be delivered to Poland through the NHLPA's Goals and Dreams fund. The equipment will then be distributed to youth that fled Ukraine due to the war and will be sent to Czechia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Romania and Switzerland to those aged 6 to 16.
Bauer Hockey also made a large contribution, donating 100 sets of helmets, gloves, sticks and 200 pairs of skates.
"NHL Players strongly support the meaningful work the IIHF is doing to assist displaced Ukrainian youth hockey players," said Mathieu Schneider, NHLPA Special Assistant to the Executive Director. "We are proud to make this equipment donation from the NHLPA Goals & Dreams program, which will help hundreds of young Ukrainian hockey players return to the ice in neighbouring countries."
IIHF President Luc Tardif added, "I would like to sincerely thank the NHLPA and Bauer for this generous donation to Ukrainian youth hockey. This is an amazing contribution to the already overwhelming show of support shown by the international ice hockey family for Ukraine's young players."
