Ottawa Senators relaunch their community foundation

The Ottawa Senators say they're "relaunching" their charitable arm just over two years after it was born to replace their former foundation.

The Senators Community Foundation will help young people in eastern Ontario and western Quebec by running programs and making investments, according to a news release from the team on Wednesday.

During its charity golf tournament the team announced more than $100,000 in donations to the Youth Services Bureau, Ottawa Education Network's breakfast program, and CHEO's Roger Neilson House.

The tournament is one of the events where the foundation raises money, along with 50/50 draws at games.

Meanwhile, the NHL team revealed the Senators Community Foundation in August 2020 with all-time games-played leader Chris Phillips as executive director. As first reported by The Athletic, he stepped down after less than a year.

A search of the team's website shows few new initiatives from the foundation since. Two examples were a January 2022 announcement of a campaign to donate to mental health initiatives, which was tied to points scored by since-traded forward Nick Paul. There was also a safe-cycling event this past June.
