Sponsor a team's participation in 1616!!    1616 is the flagship initiative of Ladd Foundation—a Canadian and U.S. registered nonprofit, founded by 2-time Stanley Cup champion Andrew Ladd and his wife, Brandy. 1616 is a FREE program designed to strengthen the mental game of young hockey players, both on and off the ice, with real stories from pro players and practical tools that build Connection, Confidence, and Character—for Players, their Caregivers, and Coaches. 1616 is about giving youth the mindset to face whatever storm’s ahead, together, because strong minds make better athletes—and even better humans.       Why It Matters (and Why It’s Working): 1616’s curriculum is research-based and evidence-informed—published in five academic journals and counting. Our content is award winning —three Anthem Awards and two Gail Awards for mental health innovation and impact. Our herd is growing—fast. We started with just 11 teams in our 2021 Pilot. By 2024? Over 435 teams across North America were part of the movement.  1616 is more than a program. It’s a mindset. A community. A charge forward—together.

Food Security Initiatives

Step forward with We Are Not Afraid to make a tangible difference in the lives of those facing food insecurity by sponsoring our food pantry for one month. Founded in 1982, our organization has evolved from a modest pantry and soup kitchen into a comprehensive food assistance program, including a client choice food pantry, movie night soup kitchens, a street outreach mobile soup kitchen, and a fellowship program. But we provide more than just meals; we offer guidance through tough times, education for healthier living, and a community built on peer-based, women of color leadership. Your sponsorship will fill our shelves, fuel our outreach, and fortify our mission to not only feed bodies but to nurture spirits, offer hope, and foster community resilience. Join us in creating a space where every meal is a stepping stone towards stability, health, and empowerment, ensuring that no one has to face hardship alone. Your support for just one month can have a lasting impact, providing sustenance and hope to those who need it most.
