A Ukrainian boy in Sooke is learning how to play hockey after the community came together to gift him the equipment.
Sofia Slobodeniuk, Roman’s mother, says her son was very active in Ukraine and wanted to get him involved in a local sport, adding together they chose hockey. However, they didn’t know where to get the equipment or find information on local teams or lessons.
Sarah Stolz with Help Ukraine Vancouver Island saw the post and immediately contacted her contacts to help the family. She says one mom in the Facebook group is involved in the hockey league and donated all the gear. Two days later, the equipment was in the Slobodeniuk house and Roman was signed up for lessons.
The mom says she is very grateful to everyone who made this happen, adding that this is her chance to “see a champion in a few years.”More than 700 Ukrainian newcomers on Vancouver Island will need some help this holiday season, according to the Victoria Ukrainian Cultural Centre.
