“He shoots! He scores!” Words ring through the air at any hockey game in North America. But when the Tampa Bay Lighting, Regina Pats, and the Moose Jaw Warriors score a goal on home ice, that’s a point for the team and a point for fighting hunger in their communities. 

Mosaic is committed to helping and supporting our community’s most vulnerable by giving to local food charities and engaging the community in our efforts through our Goals for Food program. 

$980,000 = 9,800,000 meals for Florida 

In the Tampa Bay Lightning’s regular season, Mosaic donated $1,000 for every goal scored and $1,500 for every hat trick. At the end of the season, Mosaic will present 12 regional food partners in the Tampa Bay area with the total amount. 

Goals for Food in the Tampa Bay area has been serving the communities since 2013. In those ten years, Mosaic has donated $980,000, which amounts to 9,800,000 meals. 

“For Mosaic, giving back to the communities we live and work in is a priority because those towns and cities have provided us with our teams and have also welcomed us in,” said Bruce Bodine, Mosaic’s Senior VP-North America. “Partnering with the Tampa Bay Lightning, Regina Pats, and the Moose Jaw Warriors for the Goals for Food program is a way we can support those communities’ most vulnerable people, but also engage with the public to be part of the fight against food insecurity.”  

On February 23, Mosaic employees, community partners, and Lightning fans came to cheer on their team and raise awareness about food insecurity in the region. Mosaic community partner, Metropolitan Ministries also hosted a non-perishable food drive prior to the game. 

Going on the offensive against hunger in Saskatchewan  

At Mosaic, we help the world grow the food it needs, and our commitment to food security starts right here at home.  This year, Mosaic launched the Goals for Food program in Canada, partnering with two of Saskatchewan’s Western Hockey League teams, the Regina Pats, and the Moose Jaw Warriors. 

For every goal scored by the Regina Pats and the Moose Jaw Warriors on home ice, Mosaic donated $250 to Goals for Food, supporting four local not-for-profit organizations in each community. In the 2022-23 season, the Goals for Food program raised $36,000 in Regina and $34,000 in Moose Jaw. 

On March 25 in Regina and March 31 in Moose Jaw, Mosaic employees, community partners and Pats and Warriors fans celebrated this partnership at the Goals for Food sponsor games. 

Previously, Mosaic sponsored efforts towards alleviating hunger in Regina with its Saves for Hunger program and in the Moose Jaw area with its Point for Hunger initiative.
