Nomination Procedures

The DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to promoting the spirit of fellowship via recreational hockey competition, supporting players and players’ families in high standards of health, wellness, fair play, and supporting league and team players in local community outreach.

Purpose

DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation is a non-profit organization committed to serve the local hockey community. We identify individuals and families in need through injury or illness and strive to provide support and relief through difficult times.

Guidelines

An assistance grant will be given to eligible recipients when DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation funds are available. Monies will be sent directly to the individual’s family or medical organization as deemed appropriate by the DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation board of directors. If the recipient decides not to use the monies or declines assistance, the funds will be returned directly to DNHF.

Eligibility

Assistance grants are available to any and all ADULT hockey players and/or their families in the Rocky Mountain Region who can show verifiable financial hardship due to health and/or medical related burden.

Awards

The grant and dollar amount will be voted on by the DAWG Nation Hockey Foundation board of directors and will be dependent on a variety of factors (such as, donations received through fundraising, sponsorship funds obtained, and foundation funds available.)

Possible Recipient Information

Please provide as much information as you can as the information provided is critical to our nomination process. Please understand, while we would like to help everyone in need, we have some basic guidelines.

1. The possible recipient should currently be an active player, or a family member of an active player, (unless health reasons prevent such action) or involved in the hockey community such as a referee.
2. As a Colorado 501(c)3 we give preference to persons living in Colorado, however, we will look at each case on an individual basis.

Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at dawgs@dawgnation.org

Our Request of you as a Nominator

We have two requests from you the Nominator, if your Nominee is selected to receive funds from DAWG Nation. The first request is for a written description telling their story. This will be edited and published on our website. You can see examples of this on our Giving Back Page. The second request is we would like a picture of the person being nominated, or of the family, etc. You may have to gather this information without tipping off the nominee because many times they are not aware of the gift until the check is presented at an event. Thank you for your help!
