MONTREAL — NHL star P.K. Subban is looking back after nearly one year since making a $10-million pledge to the Montreal Children's Hospital Foundation.
Subban's foundation says it has contributed $1.4 million to a fund dubbed P.K.'s Helping Hand, which assists families facing financial hardship because of their child's illness.
The Nashville Predators defenceman is in Montreal today and says projects currently funded by the foundation have helped 9,000 families.
Subban was shipped by the Montreal Canadiens to Nashville in return for defenceman Shea Weber on June 29.
The popular hockey star assured patients and families he will fulfil his commitment despite the trade.
Last September, Subban pledged to raising a minimum of $10 million over seven years.
