The Akwesasne Mohawk Police would like to announce that this year's annual law-enforcement fundraising hockey tournament recipient was Caring Hearts of Akwesasne. The annual event was luckily able to be pulled together within the last couple weeks and was held on Jan. 9th and 10th. A baked ziti lunch and a raffle table was held during the day and helped raise a total of $2,355. The tournament consisted of 5 local partnering agencies: AMPS, Kahnawake Peacekeepers, Cornwall Police, Cornwall Fire and Ontario Provincial Police. OPP won in the finals this year against Cornwall Police. We would like to thank the volunteer group Caring Hearts of Akwesasne as they organized the luncheon. The funds raised will contribute to needed supplies for their upcoming beneficiaries in need. Caring Hearts of Akwesasne are a group of volunteers with caring hearts and minds, similar to our annual event, that organize several fundraising events that also deserve some assistance for their efforts.
