The Chevrolet Good Deeds Cup competition is on for its ninth season. This competition challenges youth hockey teams in Canada to “fill the cup” by doing good deeds and posting them on social media. The champion of the contest wins $100,000 for the approved charity of its choice.
Here’s how it works. Register your team on the Chevy Canada website and get a pizza party on Chevy after your team submits its first good deed. Post videos of good deeds on Instagram or Facebook using #GoodDeedsCup and #Contest hashtags, and don’t forget to tag @ChevroletCanada and include your team’s name in the post.
Every approved good deed gets your team a point on the leaderboard. However, it appears that choosing the winner isn’t as simple as racking up the most good deeds. “The more points your team collects,” says Chevy’s website, “the better their chances of winning this year’s Cup!”

The contest runs from January 17th through March 6th. Good deeds aren’t limited to the youth hockey team players; anyone over age 13 can participate and make good deeds count toward the team they’re supporting. Parents, siblings, “or even your neighbour’s dog walker” can participate, according to Chevy.
In addition to the grand prize of a $100,000 charity donation, the team in second place gets $20,000, and third place gets $10,000 to go toward their preferred charities.
As of this writing, the U11 Huntsville Sting Black team (The U13 Huntsville Sting Black team won last year) from the Muskoka district of Ontario tops the leaderboard. The leaderboard shows the top three teams, but the amount of points each team has is hidden. It’s still early in the contest, so it’s not too late to sign up your team and have a shot at winning.

I wonder if Trump is going to enter?
If he didn’t win he would complain it was rigged, even though he has never done a good deed, or given to charity in his lifetime.
