Mission Statement

The mission of Ed Snider Youth Hockey & Education is to create opportunities for under-resourced youth of the Greater Philadelphia Region to prosper in life.

About This Cause

Snider Hockey achieves its core objective by providing quality after-school and out-of-school educational options for our young people and their families. Snider Hockey is a cutting edge program that couples the sport of hockey with rigorous off-ice activities consisting of supplemental educational services and a nationally acclaimed life skills curriculum designed to build classroom skills and character in high-risk youth from Philadelphia and Camden. Hockey is merely the hook used to gain and hold the attention of participants, motivating them to keep fully engaged in structured off-the-ice programs designed to strengthen their academic, physical, and emotional development. Snider Hockey programs advance its mission to build lives and unite communities through initiatives that are committed to the core objective that one day, all young people in the City of Philadelphia will use education as a springboard to empower themselves to build healthy, happy lives; be leaders in their families, workplaces and communities; and exemplify productive citizenship.
