Charity Mission Statement: The Upper Canada District School Board’s Champions for Kids Foundation seeks to level the playing field for students in Eastern Ontario.

In an era where many families struggle to meet basic needs, Champions for Kids supports students by helping them take part in sporting activities, music lessons or other opportunities in our communities so they can thrive beyond school walls. For many students, this is a chance to experience a little joy and hope in an otherwise challenging world. The Foundation also offers families in need a helping hand when life becomes challenging due to unforeseen circumstances. Since its inception in 2008, the foundation has raised over $1.75 million for students and families. Our success can be attributed to the generous donations and volunteer work from our community partners and employees of the Upper Canada District School Board. As a proud member of the Champions For Kids Executive, I encourage you to reach out to our foundation to see how you can be a champion for kids.
