Mikael and Frida Backlund have been making possibilities for our families since 2015. In honour of Frida’s mom, they have dedicated their valuable time and efforts to support Alberta families affected by ALS.

In addition to donating funds to the ALS Society, they generously provide a night out for families to spend together and enjoy a Calgary Flames Game. 74 families from across Alberta have had the opportunity to attend a game as guests of the Backlunds, and after the game Mikael takes the time to meet each and every family. Frida also organizes annual events to create awareness and raise funds for ALS programs and research. Mikael and Frida not only support the work of the Society, but more importantly, make memories for our families to keep forever.

Even when the COVID pandemic cut the hockey season short, Mikael and Frida ensured the Society received their gift to ensure our families were supported.

Thank you Mikael and Frida!
