About the Hockey Canada Foundation Gala & Golf

The Foundation’s largest annual fundraiser, the Hockey Canada Foundation Gala & Golf celebrates the on-ice accomplishments of Team Canada at IIHF and IPC world championships during the previous season.

Funds raised from the Gala & Golf go to Hockey Canada initiatives that support accessibility to the game, from grassroots hockey to the international game, as well as to legacy programming in the host city.

Since 2009, the Gala & Golf has proudly contributed more than $4 million to various projects in seven Canadian communities, allowing the game to continue to grow and prosper from coast to coast to coast.

The Hockey Canada Foundation works closely with Hockey Canada to raise money to support minor hockey programs. The Foundation focuses on three strategic priorities: Enable, Educate, Engage.

2020 Hockey Canada Foundation Gala and Golf

Join us for the 18th annual Hockey Canada Foundation Gala & Golf with the backdrop of one of Canada’s most spectacular natural wonders – Niagara Falls.

The two-day event on June 15-16 – the flagship fundraiser for the Foundation – celebrates Canada’s rich hockey history, the 2020 Distinguished Honourees of the Order of Hockey in Canada and world championship-winning teams from the 2019-20 season.
