LANGLEY, BC, CANADA, January 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Fraser Valley Rush U18 AAA female hockey team is just $3,000 away from its $10,000 fundraising goal, having already raised more than $7,000 in support of BC Children’s Hospital through its upcoming Rush to Recovery Charity Game.
The charity event takes place on Saturday, January 10, 2026, at Langley Twin Rinks, with puck drop at 1:30 PM, followed by a youth skills competition beginning at 4:00 PM.
Youth-Led Giving, Community-Driven Impact
This fundraiser was entirely player driven, from selecting the charity to organizing outreach. The athletes have been actively seeking contributions from friends, family, and local businesses, demonstrating leadership, teamwork, and a strong commitment to community service.
Proceeds will support BC Children’s Hospital Child and Youth Therapeutic Services, helping children and families across British Columbia access essential care and supports.
Showcasing the Pathway in Women’s Hockey
With women’s hockey gaining unprecedented momentum, including the growth of the Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL), the event highlights the development pathway for elite female athletes.
The Fraser Valley Rush program has produced players who have advanced to higher levels of competition, including Katie Chan, now with the Vancouver Goldeneyes, who is a Fraser Valley Rush alumna. Her progression underscores the calibre of play within the program and the opportunities available to athletes competing at the U18 AAA level.
