Hey @TSNHockey unfortunately the @NHLJets did not give away any #BGHC scholarship, that was all us, the fans who donated their hard earned cash in the last 9 months. The Jets sure did promote it and cover it on their social media, though!

Just saw TSN promoting this narrative on Instagram, which is categorically incorrect. The Jets didn't give away anything! What they did was send a camera crew in to get some positive media attention, which is fine, but c'mon. Y'all do your homework please.

The work of our donors, our scholarship committee and our Board of Directors is so swiftly erased and handed over to the @NHLJets by @TSN_Sports. This is what we mean when we say Black women and our work get pushed aside & commodified by the establishment. #GetUncomfortable https://t.co/GcKsylqgnz
