Vallen believes in the value of supporting local communities and the teams that give their all to their sport. Hockey is not only one of Canada's favourite pastimes, it is also where we come together to catch up on the week, share success and build our communities.
Vallen's "Local Like You" Hockey Night with the Winnipeg ICE will show Winnipeggers that Vallen is located right in our city and is happy to be a part of and promote local hockey teams and supply them with Vallen products and services!

In addition to supporting local hockey, Vallen is proud to support local non-profit, The Rising Stars Foundation at Wednesday's game. The Rising Stars Foundation provides scholarships, support and mentorship opportunities to youth from underserved communities. Through a variety of initiatives our foundation aims to develop leaders through a combination of academics and active living.
The Rising Stars Foundation's mission is to enrich youth from underserved communities by supporting, developing, and mentoring young student leaders from all backgrounds through education.
"Our foundation plays our part by helping young people find their own balance within themselves as well as learn skills necessary to make their team, family, and community successful." - Wilfred Sam-King, President & Founder of The Rising Stars Foundation
"We are excited to partner with the Winnipeg ICE this season and support The Rising Stars Foundation" said Jim Price, Winnipeg Branch Manager of Vallen, we believe in the value of supporting youth in sport; kids who play sports have higher self-esteem, better peer relationships and they learn to show respect for their coaches and teammates. Our "Local Like You" Hockey Night with the ICE and Rising Stars is an opportunity for us to connect locally with our community in Winnipeg and continue our dedication to supporting and promoting youth sports."
