Snowflake Challenge - Day 9

[przed]

I got derailed from the challenge on Wednesday by work and having a hockey game right after, so this is me getting back in the groove.

Day 9

Commit an Act of Kindness.

My two acts of kindness were in keeping with the hockey theme.

The first was Freecycling a pair of hockey pants my daughter grew out of this year, and arranging to meet with a woman who wanted them for her son. The hockey pants have a new home, and a little boy has gear. Yay!

The second one was contributing to a Go Fund Me to build a hockey pad for the Rez Girls, a hockey team from the Eabametoong First Nation in Northern Ontario:

(I found this while reading on the APTN website about yet more colonial nonsense my country is perpetrating in B.C., so was happy to make my own small bit of reparations.)

What a great cause! I tweeted the info to my followers--who like me--are very interested in the indigenous people of North America.
