On Sunday, April 12 at 3:05 p.m., the Rhode Island Building and Construction Trades Council will be holding its fifth annual Hockey Night at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center to benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Ocean State (BBBSOS).
The Providence Bruins will face off against their challengers, the Hartford Wolf Pack. Tickets are $18, and $2 of each ticket sold will go directly back to help fund the local mentoring programs of BBBSOS. Every child 12 and under who has one of these special event tickets will receive a free Providence Bruins baseball cap during the game.
Tickets benefiting BBBSOS are $18 and can be purchased by contacting BBBSOS at 921-2434, ext. 124.
Michael F. Sabitoni, president of the Rhode Island Building and Construction Trades Council and business manager of the Rhode Island Laborers’ District Council, has worked with the team at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center for the past four years to make this event a huge success.
“It is very inspiring to see so many individuals from the Building Trades come out to support this very worthwhile organization,” Sabitoni said. “Our dedicated tradesmen and women in the labor and union movement know the importance of volunteering and giving back to the community. Last year we sold over 1,000 tickets to the game and our goal this year is to reach 1,200. Collectively we know we can make a big impact in the support of such a vital organization like the Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Ocean State. It’s always a great event and lots of fun for the whole family!”
BBBSOS provides children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one relationships that change their lives for the better, forever. Currently, there are over 100 children on the waiting list – most of whom are boys – waiting for someone to positively impact their lives.
