Quik 4,113 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The Victory Hockey League stands for equality for all, regardless of ethnicity, gender, sexuality or religion. We cannot claim to be a league of acceptance while remaining silent in a time of turmoil, such as the one currently unfolding. The murder of George Floyd is only the tipping point in what has been generations of systemic racism, not just within the United States, but, around the world. As a league, we feel this is a time to show unity and support for those who fight for equal rights and assist those minorities who are most affected, as there is no place in the world for hatred due to the colour of one’s skin, or any other factor. While we would love to assist all foundations who combat racism, inequality, and social injustice, it is simply not in our power to do so. However, we have decided to run a Donation Drive so that we can assist, in some small way, those who are affected by the injustices that have occurred. The details of the Donation Drive may be found HERE. -Victory Hockey League @Commissioner @BOG @Members bigAL, mattyIceman, Spartan and 42 others 29 2 14 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/83599-vhl-statement-re-blm-movement/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it probably won't be on as large of a scale as 2019, but we'll look at it again. Depending on finances of course.
