Children are the future of the world 
SAMPLE – $5 Fundraiser this February 1-28 !
“From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and eagerness. The staff welcomed us, learned each of our names, showed us the ropes, and shared additional resources that we could plug into, specific to the ages/stages of my girls. The kids were elated as they explored each activity, from sensory tables to crafts to climbing structures to dress-up to singing, all encouraging play for me and my children together. The other families in attendance were kind and helpful, and there was an “all in this together” sense as we exchanged smiles and conversation while following our littles around. This at-home feeling grew, and before we even left, we already couldn’t wait to be back. Wednesdays are now my family’s favourite day of the week.” – Cassidy Mitchell, Family Centre Client
Featured above is one small piece of the client testimonial from one of our parents and program regulars, Cassidy. Cassidy came to Family Centre for the first time feeling weary and in need of support as a mom of three young girls. She recalls struggling with postpartum mental health after having another baby as well as the ongoing stress and isolation of Covid. After attending one of our Wednesday morning play programs, she vowed to return and over time, began to feel the sense of support and community we know is so important to families. We highly recommend taking a moment to read her full impact story by clicking HERE.
If you believe in the value of our mission and vision as much as we do, we invite you to show your support for a new fundraising campaign, our $5 Fundraiser, which will take place this February 1-28, 2023! Our goal is to raise a minimum of $1000 that will go directly back into Family Centre programs & services that support families just like Cassidy’s. These funds provide support for strengthening our programming, materials and supplies, curriculum development and facilitation of the programs.
Why $5? We chose a dollar amount, $5 or less, that we felt would be accessible to the most people. As a crowdfunding initiative, the idea is that if a lot of people give a little, the impact is far reaching! For the average cost of a latte, you can do some good in your community! If just ten people gave $5, it would cover the cost of one session of a child/youth program for 12 children.
