Hockey Canada Assist Fund
The Hockey Canada assist fund provides assistance for thousands of kids each year to families who are facing financial challenges. They recognize the need to support families in keeping their kids in hockey.
- The Assist Fund commits to distributing $1 million to kids across Canada to help them access the game of hockey. Once this limit has been reached, the Assist Fund application portal will be closed, and no further applications will be accepted for the remainder of the season. In addition, any applications which were submitted but were not assessed prior to the limit being reached will not be approved, regardless of whether they would have otherwise met HCF’s eligibility criteria.
Families can apply online during the active registration periods within the registration portal:
