Grit Gives Back is our commitment to making a difference in the lives of young athletes and future leaders. With every Grit Pile Kidz purchase, a portion goes toward supporting underserved community programs, ensuring that every child—regardless of their background—has the opportunity to discover their passion and build confidence. Through hockey clinics, we provide access to the sport for kids in need, helping them develop skills and a love for the game. Our equipment drives ensure that no child is held back due to a lack of resources, giving them the tools they need to chase their dreams. We invest in education initiatives that foster resilience and character, shaping young minds for success beyond sports. Additionally, our youth well-being efforts prioritize mental health and holistic development, empowering kids to grow both on and off the ice. Grit Gives Back is more than a program—it’s a movement to inspire, uplift, and create lasting opportunities for the next generation.

Book Signing Events!

In Partnership With Rising Stars CT!

We had an incredible time at the Darien Ice House hosting two unforgettable book signings with rising stars and fans of Grit Pile Kidz!

Special thanks to Matt Moulson for joining us and sharing his insights, inspiring young athletes. These events weren’t just about books—they were about connection, passion, and hearing firsthand from rising hockey stars about the grit and resilience it takes to chase their dreams.

Seeing kids light up as they met their heroes, shared stories, and walked away with signed copies was truly special. Huge thanks to everyone who came out and made these moments unforgettable!
