Mikael and Frida Backlund have been making possibilities happen for our families since 2015. They have dedicated their valuable time and effort to make a difference in the lives of families affected by ALS in Alberta.

In addition to donating funds to the ALS Society for critical ALS research, they generously provide tickets to the Calgary Flames Games so that families can spend a night out together. This is more than a night out, this is precious time families can spend together. Over 90 families from across Alberta have had the opportunity to attend a game. After the game, Mikael meets each and every family.

Mikael and Frida not only support the work of the Society but more importantly, make memories for our families to keep forever.

There are no words that can express the difference Mikael and Frida have made in the ALS community and their work in making our community a better place.

On June 26th, Mikael so deservingly received the King Clancy Memorial Trophy for his leadership qualities on and off the ice and his humanitarian contribution in the community.

Thank you Mikael and Frida!
