Canucks Rally Behind the Courage to Fight ALS Campaign
A heartfelt thank you to the Vancouver Canucks for growing the momentum of the Courage to Fight ALS campaign.
On Courage to Fight ALS Night, the Canucks delivered an inspiring evening that elevated awareness, generated critical funds, and paid special tribute to former NHLer and ALS Action Canada Board Director Mark Kirton. It was especially meaningful to have the Kirton family in attendance, sharing in the spirit and purpose of the night.
From engaging concourse activations, special 50/50 initiatives, and exclusive auction opportunities, to welcoming ALS patients and families for unforgettable meet-and-greet moments, a moving ceremonial puck drop, and the sharing of ALS stories - the night demonstrated what true community collaboration looks like in the fight against ALS.
What began as Mark Kirton’s vision has grown into a renewed North American movement - one that is bringing fresh attention, unity, and determination to the ALS community.
Thank you to:
- The Vancouver Canucks, their leadership team, and the Canucks for Kids Fund for their outstanding commitment and generosity
- The ALS Society of BC for their dedicated team and volunteers
- Team Goose for helping create meaningful experiences for people living with ALS and their families
- Our partner, Charitable Impact, for enabling accessible and purposeful giving
Funds raised through this Courage to Fight ALS Night for the ALS Super Fund will directly empower the ALS Society of BC to elevate patient voices and fuel research toward a cure. We will share the final total raised once confirmed, along with what’s next for the Courage to Fight campaign.
