On Saturday, January 21st, The Providence College Women’s Hockey team held a mental health awareness game and honored The Providence Center with a $1,000 donation.

Junior goalie Alanna Serviss wanted to speak out about her experiences with depression and reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness, so she helped to set up a special game to recognize a local behavioral healthcare provider. She raised the majority of the money through family and friends online, and donations were collected at the game.

TPC’s Chief Development Officer Lisa Desbiens accepted the generous donation and also had the honor of dropping the puck.
