Easter Seals Ontario helps children, youth and young adults with physical disabilities and their families. With the ongoing support of donors and volunteers, Easter Seals provides services and programs to those youth in need.

In addition, the Easter Seals is an advocate for improving the lives of the children they serve, addressing issues by partnering with public and private sector citizens and organizations across the country.

Local gym Boozy Barbell on Tecumseh Road East in Windsor is a sponsor, fundraiser and tournament team participant.

Christian Pinard is a co-owner of the establishment. His team is happy to participate in the hockey tournament but giving back to the community is their primary motivation for getting involved in fundraising for the charity.

“We want to change lives and we feel the Easter Seals just embodies that – where you genuinely are hearing testimonials from individuals whose lives are now different because of the efforts of Easter Seals,” said Pinard.

“It’s hard not to get behind efforts like that.”

Boozy Barbell is even hosting a raffle for a year long VIP membership worth $10,000 to bring in donations to benefit Easter Seals Ontario.
