The game takes place from 4-6 p.m. at the Alliston Memorial Arena located at 49 Nelson St. W., Alliston.
Wilson, a 14-year-old Grade 9 student at Banting Memorial High School, died by suicide Nov. 9, 2018.
“We need to honour Alisha’s life and raise awareness for mental health,” wrote Alisha’s friend Nicholas Chiasson, who came up with the idea for the game. “Many of us are still struggling with the loss of Alisha and kids need to know there are places in the community to turn to for help.”
All of the proceeds from the event will be donated to New Path Youth and Family Services, which has eight offices across Simcoe County, including one in Alliston. The organization provides mental health services to youth, and their families, for anyone under the age of 18.
There will be special pink T-shirts sold at the game for $20, along with cookies, hotdogs and drinks.
