CONNOR MCDAVID and The Joey Moss Story
We hope you might want to support Find Your Own Story at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre, a literacy program where children in the hospital are strengthened and nurtured through the power of shared story.
It’s an initiative that brings together hospital physicians, nurses and residents, along with the NHL’s Connor McDavid, superstar country artist Brett Kissel, actor Jason Thompson, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other notable Canadians.
