VEGAS (September 10, 2018) - Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Deryk Engelland and his family introduced today, September 10, the Engelland's Vegas Born Heroes Foundation to honor community heroes in Las Vegas.

Through this mission, the Engellands will hand select 20 community heroes to attend a Vegas Golden Knights game and receive a Golden Knights jersey and Vegas Born Hero shirt.

"My family and I wanted to create this foundation to recognize the incredible men and women who work to better our community every day," said Deryk Engelland. "I'm honored to do a small part in thanking them for their contributions."
