The Devils Youth Foundation announced its partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Essex, Hudson and Union Counties for National Mentoring Month during January 2023, which will bring awareness to the positive power of mentors in children’s lives. There is a special call to action around securing more male mentors (“Big Brothers) given the increased number of boys (“Little Brothers”) on a waitlist for mentors coming out of the pandemic.

HOCKEY IN NEW JERSEY
Rising costs and lack of local ice rinks have prevented inner-city youth from pursuing the sport of hockey. Hockey in NJ was founded in 2003 to remove these obstacles and create programming that provides ongoing hockey experiences for youth in diverse urban communities. Hockey in New Jersey inspires youth to develop life skills, succeed academically and create positive relationships through the sport of hockey.
