The hospital called Subban’s donation “the biggest philanthropic commitment by a sports figure in Canadian history.”

Some of Subban’s contribution will go to a fund called P.K.’s Helping Hands, which will help families of sick children through their financial difficulties, reports CBC.

The hospital has also named an atrium after the hockey player.
