Helmets for Hardy (Closed)
About Helmets for Hardy
Helmets for Hardy was created in July 2012 in memory of Josh Hardy, who lost his life at age 18 due to a head injury. The organization supported helmet-use for biking, skateboarding, and other self-propelled vehicles. Every summer, the organization held a helmet giveaway for children who could not afford them.
In 2014, a Fund was established with the Yellowknife Community Foundation to further facilitate the organization’s aims.
In May 2024, Helmets for Hardy held its last giveaway event. Over 2000 helmets have been distributed through those twelve years, and more than $18,000 in funds raised.
We want to thank Jackie and Ed Hardy for their passionate work, and the members of our community for their ardent support.
