Over the past weekend, resident do-gooder Jamie Oleksiak elected to embark on a charity excursion in Quito, Ecuador to both help out a great cause and experience the culture of a nation he describes as “unique, resilient, and inspiring.”
Per his Instagram post, the newly re-signed defenseman was humbled to have met and worked with the folks he did in Ecuador’s capital city through the ME to WE program, and mentioned how humbling the entire trip was as a whole. Oleksiak’s compliments of Ecuadorian culture mirror how much of an impact it had on him.
