The 2020 Prince George Cougar’s Virtual Teddy and Toque Toss raised $11,000 for the Salvation Army Food Bank.
“It’s been an honour to partner with The Salvation Army for so many years and we were blown away by the response of our fans, local businesses, and the community to help combat the unprecedented challenges so many are facing during this pandemic,” said Cougars’ Vice President, Business Andy Beesley.
Despite the longstanding tradition moving online to adhere to provincial guidelines, the initial campaign goal of $5,000 was beaten within a couple of days.
