You helped turn a season into something bigger.

This is how we make a difference—together. And you’re helping drive us closer to our $1M goal for children’s hospitals across Canada.

Proud to stand with partners who give back where it matters most. ❤️

Today, we were incredibly honoured to present a cheque to the Jim Pattison Children's Hospital Foundation 💛

This donation was made possible through our Camo for a Cause jersey auction this season, and we are so grateful to everyone who bid, supported, and helped make this initiative such a success.

A special thank you to Gescan for partnering with us on this meaningful project and helping us give back to an organization that means so much to so many families across Saskatchewan.

In this photo is Broncos Associate Coach Carter Hansen alongside his wife Bobbi-Jo and daughter Ellie. The Children’s Hospital holds a very special place in their hearts, making today even more meaningful.

Thank you again to everyone who supported this amazing cause. Together, we are able to make a difference both on and off the ice 💚

Big congrats to these future electricians 👏

We had the chance to connect with electrical students from a local high school in BC and support them as they take their next step into the trade. Each received some Gescan gear to get them started — and we’ll be awarding a $500 Starter Tool Kit to the top student at the end of the year to recognize their hard work.

We’re proud to support the local electrical community and the next generation coming up. You can count on us to be stocked and ready when you need us.
