Every year I say that I leave PPH with sore feet and a full heart and 2024 was no different! Thank you to the more than 150 volunteers who helped more than 1000 students select their special outfit. Can’t wait to do it all again next year!

This decision has stripped clubs of a powerful community outreach tool and removed meaningful support for Special Initiatives, all to protect a select few who do not want to answer any questions about their choices. I hope the NHL reconsiders in order to remain a leader in DEI.
I am deeply disappointed in the NHL’s decision to ban on-ice support for community causes. The NHL has been an enthusiastic, invaluable supporter of a number of important causes and groups – to name just a few; Indigenous peoples, first responders, military heroes, cancer survivors, women in hockey, victims of civic disasters, people of color, and, of course, the LGBTQ+ community. This new league policy strips clubs and players of one of the most important and visible ways of supporting causes they care about. Let’s be clear: this is not inclusion or progress. This decision does not grow the game, and does not make our fans feel welcome. Fans look to teams and the league to show they are welcome, and this directive closes a door that’s been open for the last decade. We will not lose the incredible progress we’ve made in inclusion over the last decade, and we are counting on the League for continued support and leadership in this area. -Brian Burke

Liz’s story is all too familiar to those of us who work in the non-profit sector. Her honest, brave and vulnerable truth cannot be ignored. Thank you @liz_hallett

So proud to work along side amazing @HamFdnSS board members like Peggy Savage. Their care, compassion and commitment for @HWDSB students is extraordinary.

Thank you to HFSS Board of Directors member Peggy Savage for advocating for Student Support Grants in Saturday’s edition of @TheSpec! We’re so grateful for everything you do, Peggy! Didn’t get a chance to read the article? You can access it here: thespec.com/opinion/contribu…
Screenshot of newspaper article with text: New gym shoes, class trips, a warm winter jacket — it is a familiar checklist at the start of a school year. For some families it is not that simple to purchase everything on the list. Fortunately students in Hamilton Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) can turn to the Hamilton Foundation for Student Success (HFSS) for help. HFSS is a registered non-profit charity that raises funds to support the needs of students. Established in 1976, it has the sole mandate of overcoming barriers to student success through Student Support Grants. This allows eligible students to receive up to $200 per school year to cover the cost of needs as identified by school staff. These may range from clothing and hygiene items to co-op placement expenses, post-secondary application fees or the cost of an extracurricular activity.

My only hope is that @RedeemerUniv dives deep into the email Bekett sent and institutes change so this never happens to another student. The University's current silence is unacceptable. thespec.com/local-ancaster/n…

The HWDSB Education Centre was filled with generosity last night as friends of HFSS reconnected at our Donor Appreciation Event! It was the first time in over two years that donors, volunteers, staff, and more were able to share thanks and praise under the same roof.
