A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

The Pancake Project is back!

The 5th annual Pancake Project, presented by Acera Insurance, feeds deserving families and brings joy to many kids in our community.

With your support, we can feed over 500 families while raising funds for our impactful programs. The Pancake Project is a fundraiser with a direct social impact. It feeds kids while our programs nourish their spirits.

$20 sends a family a Pancake Project package, including pancake mix, syrup, juice, a Stampede-themed activity booklet, crayons, toys, and more! If our goal is surpassed, all dollars will support this project and our impactful programs! 

All donations will be matched up to 50% by Rogers Birdies For Kids presented by AltaLink. 

Please help us create magic, engage kids in the arts, provide recreational opportunities for family bonding and reconnection, and give kids a reason to smile and cheer. More than ever, the enriching experiences Kids Up Front provides are vital to children's well-being and critical to fostering connections and reducing social isolation.

Thank you for your generosity and support,

Nicky Nash

A RECORD!

On May 22, the Kids Up Front Calgary team (4 people) provided 2,450 tickets and t-shirts for the Calgary Surge Home Opener, including two suites for kids and families! Thank you to all of the Surge Assist sponsors and champions for fuelling this work.

The team has been working for months to ensure we made as many basketball dreams come true as possible.

This is the largest group we've ever sent to one event/date! It was a historical day for Kids Up Front Calgary.

Thank you, team! Your hard work was not only noticed but very much appreciated. A true team effort, and I could not be prouder!

Seeing our kiddos leaving the Saddledome in red Surge shirts, smiling and cheering, made it all worthwhile. What an amazing accomplishment for our organization.

A quote from a family that attended:

"Hey! Thank you so much for the opportunity to watch the home opener Calgary Surge game. It was me and the kids' first official game at the dome. We had a lot of fun. Truly appreciate the generosity of the free tickets where I can take my nonverbal child to see some real world. You guys are truly sent from heaven!"

A quote from one of our volunteers:

"You have such a solid team right now, and they all do it with a smile and grace. Your staff came into my suite last night to confirm that everything was good and that there were no issues. I know they had her plate full. Amazing professionalism!"

With appreciation,

Nicky
