Learn about the BDO Goals for Kids program
Every season, Hockey Canada brings national and international events to communities across the country. The net proceeds from those events remain locally as a legacy to allow them to invest in growing the game.
As a Hockey Canada international marketing partner, BDO is expanding that legacy through BDO Goals for Kids – a program that sees $50 for every goal scored at a national championship and $100 for every goal scored by Team Canada at an international event on home ice go back into the host communities to assist with offsetting costs for young players.
To date, the BDO Goals for Kids program has donated more than $100,000 to grassroots hockey.
