Along with the monetary donations, Belleville Sens players and staff gave their time visiting 21 schools across the Quinte Region, interacting with more than 4,000 students, and handing out thousands of team-made activity and colour books along the way, while also taking part in multiple community events and parades both through the season, and last summer.
