In January of 2011, a small group of adult recreation league hockey players made a pledge to honor a fallen teammate by creating a very unique foundation focused on helping families in their time of need. Utilizing a very successful strategy consisting of several annual fundraisers, we have provided financial support totaling over $4 million in direct aid to families!

The Hockey Family Is A Compassionate One


Magic Moments Are the Cornerstone of DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation!

DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation utilizes a 360° Support Model. This model looks at the needs families, and individuals have beyond giving them a one time check. This could include financial counseling, legal support, home repairs or modifications, mental health support, housing, transportation, adaptability and accessibility, mentoring, scholarships, support networks for veterans, and creating intentional emotional and community support. But it’s our ability to provide some truly memorable experiences, as well as “magic moments,” that are the cornerstone of DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation and create real hope and joy in a recipient’s life.
