When did you become 'grown up'?

That exact moment may be hard to define, but surely you can remember some of the profound memories from before you became 'an adult', the memories of a child. 

Childhood memories are a unique and profound thing that each and every person deserves to have, cherish, and remember from time to time when the stress of life and the pressures of being an adult start to pile up. It is a beautiful thing to be able to play those moments of pure, care-free fun in our minds. For many of us, those memories have shaped who we are today; how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and our view of what life is all about.

The first chapters of any book set the tone for the story yet to be told. 

Activate!Kids is about making sure that every child has access to a sense of fun, community, and the creation of profound memories that last a lifetime. The goal of this campaign is to raise $5000 to send at least 15 kids to the University of Toronto Mississauga's multi-sport camp in the 2019 summer.

Many children in the Greater Toronto Area are growing up quickly. In low-income households, the circumstances of life don't always allow for the 'extra' parts of life such as a summer camp. Life can be difficult, and when that struggle is real for parents, it becomes very present for children too. That mindset is carried forward into all areas of life. This is how poverty carries on; it lives in the children of today who become the parents of tomorrow.

We ALL can make a difference though.

Activate!Kids is an opportunity to contribute a chapter to the story of the life of a child which has yet to be told.  Please donate to our cause. It really is OUR cause. Provide a child with invaluable memories that contribute to an amazing life. 

Please share our cause with the people in your life, and ask, what difference would it make in their world if every child has access to a sense of fun, community, and the creation of profound memories that last a lifetime?
