Hockey Helps The Homeless, in partnership with CN, raised $7.8 million

Playing with purpose

Hockey Helps The Homeless, in partnership with CN, raised $7.8 million

They laced up, volunteered and showed what it means to play with purpose. Hockey Helps the Homeless, sponsored by CN, raised an incredible $7.8 million for local organizations fighting homelessness across Canada through a series of friendly hockey tournaments.

Team CN showed up in full force: 162 players and 46 volunteers across 8 cities stepped onto the ice alongside former pro-players, all united by one goal: to help shutout homelessness.

John Mazzei, National Account Manager, Bulk, who played hockey in his youth, was all-in at the tournament in Calgary. “It was a fantastic day of hockey! Playing alongside teammates and against opponents who were all united in the same cause created an incredible atmosphere,” says John, who got to play left wing on a line with former Montreal Canadien Brian Skrudland, who brought in his Stanley Cup ring for people to try on.

The hockey events were made successful thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, including an enthusiastic group of CN pensioners, employees and their families in every participating city. Camila Andrea Sanchez, Junior Coordinator, Legislative Affairs, volunteered at the Montreal tournament, welcoming players, helping coordinate team logistics, and supporting the teams throughout the day. “Homelessness is not something people choose – it can happen to anyone. It has many faces, and it doesn’t define a person’s worth. Everyone deserves compassion. Everyone deserves a second chance – and a safe place to call home,” says Camila.

About our partnership

In 2024, CN became the new Premier National Partner of Hockey Helps the Homeless, beginning with the 2024–2025 season, to raise awareness and support for people experiencing homelessness through education, fundraising, and partnerships with solution-focused local shelters and services.

Currently, there are 300,000+ unhoused people each year in Canada, though this figure is likely underreported. In 2023-2024, the organizations benefiting from HHTH tournaments provided over 2.7M meals and 1.8M nights in beds across the country, among many other vital services. Support from CN will enable HHTH to expand into new markets and to deepen support in existing markets, allowing more lives to be impacted.
