Dear Friends-

Ice Skating and Hockey are the latest sports to make it possible for everyone to play by offering adaptive, inclusive equipment. Variety KC is bringing adaptive skating and hockey to the Silverstein Eye Centers Arena, but we need your help.

These adaptive walkers and hockey sleds are expensive, but if we team up, we'll make this dream a reality and once again KC will lead the way in inclusive play. 

Please consider sponsoring a gift that will benefit many kids in our community. Donate directly to: www.Varietykc.org

Adaptive Hockey Sled: $1500

New Equipment: $50

We're seeking local businesses and organizations to generously partner to reach our fundraising goal March 31st, 2017. 

If you would like to donate your gently used hockey equipment to help get this program started: Please drop off equipment at your local rink from now until March 24th, 2017.

  • Helmets
  • Gloves
  • Jerseys

The adaptive skating and hockey will take place at Silverstein Eye Centers Arena, home of the Missouri Mavericks.

Thank you,

"For 12 Seasons Maddox has been limited to stands to watch his typically abled brother play hockey. Maddox is so excited for the opportunity Variety KC and it's partners are presenting so that he can get out there and be active, be a part of the team and smell the ice just like every other hockey player in KC!" - Nancy Truitt
