Kevin Roche Memorial Assistance Fund
IGHHA Membership,
We are extremely pleased to announce a new program for the 2012-2013 season that will continue to strengthen our organization; the Kevin Roche Memorial Assistance Fund. This program was created as tribute to Kevin Roche, a former IGHHA board member, parent, and overall youth hockey enthusiast, who passed away late last year after a hard fought battle with cancer. This program is intended to defray some of the costs of hockey for families facing a temporary financial hardship.
This program is made possible through a generous donation from the Roche Family specifically for this purpose.
An independent committee led by Wendy Roche will review applications with the intent of making decisions on assistance grants by July 1, our tentative target for the opening of our first ever online registration.
For more details please see the attached application form, which can also be found on the IGHHA website at: http://igh.pucksystems2.com/
The application deadline is June 15, 2012. To the extent any funds are still available after the initial application period, the committee may decide to open up an additional application period after registration has started.
If you think this program might be helpful to you, please review and complete the application form and forward to Wendy Roche at the address listed on the form. Also, if you know someone who has dropped out of hockey due to a financial hardship, please feel free to forward the program details to them.
Thank you,
Jodi Royce, IGHHA President
Wendy Roche, Chair, Kevin Roche Memorial Assistance Fund
