A mystery donor has raised the stakes for the Victoria Grizzlies, who this season have two goals on the ice: beating the opposition and helping to support West Shore families struggling with their food bills.
Earlier in September, it was announced Waterworks Irrigation will donate $20 to the Goldstream Food Bank for every goal the Grizzlies score during the 2024/25 campaign, both at home and on the road.
After reading the news in the Goldstream Gazette, an anonymous season ticket holder pledged to donate an additional $40, raising the total donation to $60 every time the Grizzlies light the lamp.
"The season ticket holder would like to remain anonymous and make sure that Waterworks Irrigation gets all of the credit for this promotion as it was their vision to make a difference in the community in which we live, that made this all possible," said the Grizzlies in a press release.
The fundraising begins for the Grizzlies on Friday (Sept. 27), when the new season kicks off.
