Elbows Up: Supporting Communities in Mexico

Bringing the spirit of a hard-fought game to those in need.

From the Rink to Mexico: A New Mission

Following its successful inaugural mission in the Philippines, **Elbows Up.ca** has now turned its attention to the vibrant and resilient nation of **Mexico**. The organization recognizes that while Mexico is a powerhouse of culture and economy, many communities still face significant challenges. With the "Elbows Up" spirit, the organization is committed to tackling these issues head-on.

Elbows Up: A Game of Defense and Support

The "Elbows Up" philosophy is about more than just a firm stance; it’s about **protecting those who cannot protect themselves**. In the context of Mexico, this means providing crucial support to marginalized communities in urban centers and remote areas. The organization’s work here focuses on:

  • **Feeding and Housing Programs:** Elbows Up has partnered with local Mexican non-profits to establish community kitchens and construct sustainable housing, ensuring that families have access to nutritious food and safe shelter.
  • **Education and Youth Support:** Recognizing the importance of a hopeful future, the organization is also helping to fund projects that provide access to education for Mexican youth, including school supplies and scholarships.

What Canadians Do: A Global Legacy of Giving

The generosity of Canadians is the driving force behind the Elbows Up initiative. Canadians contribute in various ways to support the mission in Mexico and beyond:

  • **Volunteer Work:** Many Canadians are dedicating their time and skills to work on the ground in Mexico, helping to build homes and coordinate aid distribution.
  • **Fundraising Events:** From charity hockey games to community bake sales, Canadians are raising funds to support the ongoing projects in Mexico and to expand the Elbows Up mission to other countries.
  • **Spreading Awareness:** Canadians are using their platform to raise awareness about the struggles faced by people in Mexico, encouraging more people to join the cause.
