Champions For Children Foundation is the fund raising foundation of the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa and our purpose is to fund prevention programs that are not funded through government funding.The mandate of the Champions for Children Foundation is to raise funds and to heighten public awareness of the growing need to protect the rights and brighten the futures of children and youth at risk in the community.
What the Champions For Children Foundation is able to accomplish, through the generosity of sponsors and donors and events such as these, is similar to a drop of water falling into a large pond that causes a ripple effect, which in turn affects many more lives in such a profound way.
Studies show that prevention is the key. In fact, every $1 spent on prevention saves as much as $7 in the long-term, resulting in lower costs for health care, social services, remedial education and welfare.
Champions For Children Foundation's Pillars of Prevention were created and launched on June 7th, 1999. This was, and continues to be, an innovative solution designed to stop child abuse before it starts.
The power that is given to our children and youth through our programs - by knowing that someone believes in them, even if it can’t be their own parents, gives them the courage to believe in themselves to create a different life for themselves and their future families.
As a matter of fact, as designated funds, 100 percent of every dollar raised goes directly to support the programs. There is no administration burden within Pillars of Prevention.
The Champions For Children Foundation is a Canadian Charitable organization created in 1992. Registration number 89754 6735 RR 0001.
