Let me bring you up to speed. It all started in 2007 with Arena Football, then on to the NHL (Mike Green, stand out defenseman for the Washington Capitals and Elliot Segal, a famous disc jockey at DC 101 rock station, teamed up and started ” SO KIDS CAN”;
a program that helps infants and children in the Washinton, DC area in need of a prosthetic. At the conclusion of the Washington Capitals Professional Hockey Team season, with playoffs in full swing DeSales Wagster, now V.P. for Speedway Motorsports, Inc. saw an article on the internet and began following ” SO KIDS CAN”. Wagster was amazed that a kindergarten in the D.C. area decided for a class project they would reach out and help kids who were in need of a prosthetic. When they completed their fund raiser, the teacher was so excited she immediatly called the Washington Capitals head office and left word for Mike Green to please contact her. Green did return the call and notified managment that a kindergarten in the local DC area had raised money for “SO KIDS CAN”. Mr. Leonsis, majority owner of the Washington Capitals, was so delighted that these children were excited to begin giving back to community at such a early age, he requested to be included in the check presentation at the school.
Mike Green and Elliot Segal arrived at the school ,with both head coach Bruce Broduer and majority owner Ted Leonsis. Leonsis congratulated the students and told them how impressed he was with them for giving back to the community at such an early age. Mr. Leonsis was so touched, that he in turn, honored the children with an ovewhelming addition to their fund raising efforts.
