Wawanesa Insurance has teamed up with the Canadian Hockey League (CHL), as well as with independent insurance brokers and local charities across Canada to make kids smile this Christmas.

Wawanesa Insurance launched the Wawanesa Toy Drive, allowing CHL fans to donate new and unwrapped toys at any of the 36 Wawanesa Toy Drive games taking place across the country from Nov. 16 to Dec. 15 and at participating broker locations in each community.

As a special thank you for all donations, all toy donors will have the chance to win in a grand prize draw for a trip for two to Kelowna for the 2020 Memorial Cup presented by Kia.

“Happy kids, neighbours helping neighbours, and some of the best hockey in the world – it’s a winning combination to help more Canadian families enjoy this holiday season,” said Selena Hinds, vice president of communications and community affairs at Wawanesa Insurance.

“The Canadian Hockey League and our member teams are proud to support our communities and the Wawanesa Toy Drive campaign is another wonderful opportunity to help make a positive difference for families across Canada,” said Dan MacKenzie, CHL president. “We’re excited to join our partners at Wawanesa Insurance and our passionate fans to help deliver thousands of toys and smiles to kids this holiday season.”
