Removing barriers. Empowering dreams.

The Hudson Sullivan Foundation was established in 2024.

We partner with qualified charitable organizations whose missions align with our own: removing financial barriers that prevent youth from pursuing their dreams in athletics and education. Through strategic funding and scholarship support, we work to ensure that talent, drive, and determination — not circumstance — define a young person's future.

In collaboration with our charitable partners, we identify individuals who demonstrate exceptional potential and commitment but face financial obstacles limiting access to sport, training, tuition, equipment, or continued educational advancement.

At its core, the Foundation exists to close the gap between potential and opportunity — investing in young people who are ready to take the next step forward but need access to make it possible.

"As a WTA player touring professional, I am truly honoured and humbled to be a recipient of a grant from The Hudson Sullivan Foundation. It is through the thoughtfulness and generous support of this charity that I, along with other aspiring professional athletes, am able to continue pursuing my dreams and proudly represent Canada both nationally and abroad. I am deeply grateful for this opportunity and the belief placed in me."

— Kayla Cross, 20 years old

In memory of
Hudson Sullivan.

"While [Hudson] will be remembered by colleagues for his exceptional creativity and talent, it was his uncanny ability to inspire and bring out the best in those around him that will be his biggest legacy."

The Hudson Sullivan Foundation was established in loving memory of Hudson Alexander Sullivan, who died suddenly on August 4, 2024, at the age of 38. Though his life was far too short, Hudson left an immeasurable impact on his community and on everyone he encountered.

An exceptional athlete, he was a natural team player and captain, whose competitive spirit inspired those around him and brought people together. Hudson built a successful career in marketing and brand strategy in New York and Toronto, where he was respected for his creativity and leadership, but even more for his rare ability to elevate others and bring out their very best.

Hudson's athletic and professional accomplishments are surpassed only by the generous and compassionate way in which he lived his life. He led with integrity, inclusivity, and heart, and believed deeply in creating opportunity for others. The Foundation exists to carry that legacy forward — supporting initiatives that reflect the values he embodied: generosity, inclusivity, creativity, mentorship, and opportunity.

The Hudson Sullivan Foundation was founded by his wife, Katie Sullivan, and their two sons, Wyatt and Casey.

Cup

The Hudson Cup

The Hudson Cup is an annual hockey tournament proudly organized by The Hudson Sullivan Memorial Association, a Canadian not-for-profit corporation established in support of The Hudson Sullivan Foundation.

The Hudson Cup stands as both a tribute and a legacy, bringing together athletes, families, and communities with a shared purpose: to celebrate the game of hockey while creating opportunities that extend far beyond the rink. Proceeds from The Hudson Cup directly support the Foundation's charitable endeavours.
