2026 Platinum Sponsors

Hockey Mentors is incredibly grateful to the Birmingham Rotary Club for their generous support of our mission to make hockey accessible to individuals with disabilities and mobility challenges.

Their donation is far more than a financial contribution—it is an investment in opportunity, confidence, friendship, and community. Because of organizations like the Birmingham Rotary Club, children, veterans, and adults with physical disabilities can experience the joy of skating and hockey in a safe, welcoming environment at no cost to their families.

The Birmingham Rotary Club's commitment to service and improving lives perfectly aligns with the values of Hockey Mentors. Their generosity helps us purchase adaptive equipment, expand our programs, train volunteers, and ensure that every participant has the support they need to succeed on and off the ice.

We are honored to partner with an organization that shares our belief that everyone deserves the chance to participate, belong, and achieve their full potential.

On behalf of every athlete, family, volunteer, and supporter of Hockey Mentors, thank you to the Birmingham Rotary Club for helping us level the playing field and making a lasting difference in our community.

This is what purpose-driven giving looks like.  Home Page | Rotary Club of Birmingham 

  Hockey Mentors for Special Players is deeply honored to be supported by Kelly’s Kidz, a nonprofit founded by Kelly Hermann and rooted in a simple but powerful belief: every child deserves to feel seen, included, and valued.

Kelly’s Kidz was created to bring joy, support, and meaningful experiences to children and families who often face extraordinary challenges. That same heart is reflected in their unwavering support of Hockey Mentors. They give every year—not out of obligation, but out of genuine understanding and compassion for the families we serve.

Their generosity is transformational. Because of Kelly’s Kidz, our athletes step onto the ice knowing they belong. Their support helps cover ice time, equipment, and programming that allows our participants to build confidence, friendships, and lifelong memories.

Kelly’s Kidz doesn’t just fund a program—they champion a mission. We are incredibly grateful to Kelly Hermann and Kelly’s Kidz for believing in our athletes and for standing with Hockey Mentors year after year.
