Sudbury Nickel Capitals U16 AAA Christmas Initiative “Better Beginnings Better Futures”
The U16AAA Sudbury Nickel Capitals are giving back. Our Sudbury Nickel Caps have partnered with a local non-profit organization called Better Beginnings Better Futures. Better Beginnings is a vital community resource – they support hundreds of children and families in our community every year. 

Better Beginnings programs focus on prevention, promotion and community development. This Christmas the team has decided to adopt 3 families through this non-profit organization that are all desperately in need. During the month of December, the team has come together to help make this happen. These families lack some of the basic needs including food and clothing. This has been a fantastic opportunity to give back within our community to families and children in need.
