Lacrosse Fans Giving Back
Rush Pass the Bucket is a powerful example of how sports fans can rally together for a greater cause. At a Saskatoon Rush lacrosse game, the POW City Kinsmen team up with the crowd to raise funds for Telemiracle, Saskatchewan’s most cherished annual telethon.
Fundraising in the Stands

Buckets move quickly down each row as fans drop in cash—coins, bills, whatever they can spare. In just a few minutes, a wave of generosity rolls through the arena, turning a night of excitement into a night of impact.
This grassroots fundraiser is all about showing that small actions can lead to big change. With thousands of fans in attendance, every bit adds up—making a meaningful difference in the lives of people across Saskatchewan who rely on Telemiracle for support.
