The Sedin Family Foundation was\u202festablished\u202fin 2013\u00a0by Henrik & Johanna and Daniel & Marinette Sedin to support children’s health and education with a focus on family wellness in communities throughout the province of British Columbia. The Foundation partners with schools, community\u202fgroups,\u202fand social service agencies to\u202fidentify\u202fneeds and find creative and unique ways to make a difference for children and families. Projects have been funded in communities including Surrey, Vancouver,\u00a0Victoria, the\u00a0District of Kent, Port Hardy, Abbotsford, and Kelowna.\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDaniel and Henrik Sedin\u2019s legacy in Vancouver extends far beyond the game of hockey and into the heart of our community,\u201d said Michael Doyle, President, Canucks Sports & Entertainment, Business Operations. \u201cWe encourage fans to come together on this special night to help raise vital funds for children and families who need it most. We are proud to donate the proceeds of our 50\/50 raffle to the Sedin Family Foundation and support their\u00a0meaningful initiatives.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last year, the funds raised supported the northern communities of Tatla Lake, Prince George,\u00a0Valemount, Fort St. James, Nechako Lakes, Chetwynd, Vanderhoof and Williams Lake. School food programs, clothing, necessities, and community food banks were the areas with the greatest need. By providing consistent access to food and essentials, this helps reduce barriers, foster independence, and strengthen connections between school and home, creating a more supportive and caring school community.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very grateful that again this year the proceeds from today\u2019s CFKF 50\/50 will be directed to the Sedin Family Foundation,\u201d said Henrik Sedin. \u201cOur continued partnership with the Canucks and Canucks for Kids Fund enables us to support many families across British Columbia at a time when the need is unprecedented.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOur schools in British Columbia are working hard to support their students and families every day.\u00a0We\u2019re\u00a0fortunate to be able to contribute to the food programs in schools that are so important for success in learning\u201d,\u00a0said Daniel Sedin. \u201cWe really appreciate how Canucks fans support the 50\/50 and our work helping communities and the people throughout the province.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

To date, the joint initiative between the CFKF and the Sedin Family Foundation has invested more than $450,000 in communities across British Columbia.\u00a0Through its continued partnership with the Canucks, the Foundation looks forward to deepening its support for families throughout the province.\u00a0<\/p>\n
