About POCK Charity

The Peace Officers Caring for Kids Foundation was created in 2002 to provide some financial support to children and families suffering from health challenges. POCK Charity has experienced tremendous support throughout the years.

We made a donation to Roger Neilson House before it was built. We were the first charity organization to hold an event to support Roger Neilson House.

Currently our annual event to raise money is the POCK Golf Classic held in August. The POCK Golf Classic is a very successful and popular event on the calendar. The website was created to allow anyone from anywhere to donate to our charity online. POCK Charity organized several hockey tournaments in the past. Some tournaments featured the Ottawa Senators Alumni and of course “Sparta Cat” We invited all the Schools to attend the game and a safety fair outside the Community Centre. The place was packed with screaming kids to watch Brad Marsh play for the Senators!

Our Story

How We Got Started

In 2002 a friend of ours organized a baseball tournament to raise money for a local family who’s daughter needed a Kidney transplant. Our friend returned home to drop off the money raised from the tournament and headed out to a reception. When he returned home someone had broken into his house stealing several items and the money raised.
Correctional Officers at Rideau Correctional/Treatment Centre heard what happened and decided to help. We already organize a Corrections hockey tournament, so we decided to raise money for the family. The fundraiser was so successful that we could make a substantial donation to the family.

Where We Are Now

Currently POCK has raised over two hundred thousand dollars to help children and families in our community. We organize our annual Annual Golf Classic Tournament in August to support the POCK charity.
