ABOUT Maritime NHL'ers For Kids

Maritime NHL'ers For Kids was founded in 2000 by NHL Coach Rick Bowness, along with several retired Maritime NHL hockey players, and a group of business leaders in the Halifax area.

We are a non-profit organization committed to helping ensure minor hockey continues to enrich the lives of Maritime boys and girls whose families face financial challenges. 

Our amazing team of volunteers are dedicated to helping others. We’ve been able to help 6,000+ Maritime kids play minor hockey, the greatest game in the world!
