This was inspired by @SchwarzNarr doing something similar in the ISFL here. I was thinking of donating, and since I don’t have an ISFL player I figured I’d base it off the SHL character I’ve spent so many seasons lovingly creating.
The news over the past few weeks of the Hockey Canada scandal, the Deshaun Watson saga and the Jake Virtanen trial, among other sports-related news and discourse on the subject have been rather stressful, and one of the resources that has been very helpful through this time is my local sexual assault centre. They’re nonprofit organizations that provide services such as medical checks, a safe space for reporting, advocates to help survivors navigate the legal process, counseling for mental health, and more. These services have been incredibly helpful for me over the past few months, and I want to do what I can to give back. Schwarz’s effort in the ISFL inspired me to make a game of it.
Here goes:
I will be donating $1 for every goal that Sophie Bordeleau scores in S67 and $0.50 for every assist that she records in S67 to my city’s sexual assault centre. If anyone would like to join me, I encourage you to look up your local sexual assault centre and check out the work that they do, or check out rainn.org for the (US) national organization that works to provide resources to those affected by sexualized violence.
All the love.
