Hockey Mentors for Special Olympians

Hockey Mentors summer event was a HUGE SUCCESS!

Over 250 people turned out for hours of skating and hockey fun! Highlights included an exhibition game featuring the Motor City Veterans versus the Motor City Riveters (formerly the Little Caesars Women’s team). It was incredible to see how much our returning skaters have progressed—and to welcome so many newcomers to the ice.

Big thanks to Belle Tire for lending us sled equipment, which allowed guests to experience being on the ice firsthand. Everyone enjoyed a tasty pasta lunch and Bakehouse 46 cupcakes. Guests also went home with a custom T‑shirt and hockey jersey featuring the Hockey Mentors logo, along with our sponsors’ branding.

Can’t wait to do it all again next year!

Inclusive Mission Driven

Adult Hockey Sled

We’re currently fundraising to purchase three adult-sized hockey sleds so we can continue offering inclusive ice time at all of our events. These sleds would allow individuals with lower limb mobility challenges to fully participate — not just once a year, but throughout the season.

Child Hockey Sleds

We’re working to purchase three child-sized hockey sleds so that kids with lower limb mobility challenges can experience the thrill of being on the ice at every skate — just like other kids. Every child deserves the chance to play, compete, and feel part of the team.
