9th annual Checking for Charity ice hockey fundraising event. Sunday March 29th, Troubh Ice Arena, Portland. www.cfcmaine.org This year’s proceeds will benefit Strive, and other local charities.
Checking For Charity was born out of a love for hockey and a desire to give back to the community. In 2017, two South Portland firefighters hatched up an idea: A charity hockey event with a couple of games and a focus on South Portland. Through the support and hard-work of many firefighters and community members the event has grown and raised over $100,000 in its first 6 years! The event is the largest fundraiser the South Portland Professional Firefighters conduct each year. All of the money raised is donated to a variety of non-profit organizations and charities. Although some money is donated to larger organizations, the vast majority of the money is donated to local groups.
