Ready! Set! Let’s PLAY!
Did you know that there are over 300,000 children and youth at risk of neglect and abuse? Many of their families do not have the necessary support, and Safe Families Canada has a solution: extended family-like support to get families back on track!
This summer, you can PLAY for Safe Families Canada in our National Fundraiser and help reach hundreds of families across Canada to keep children safe and families together.
Join our Team, PLAY and help us raise $200,000 for Safe Families Canada.

Historically, the extended family or neighbours often stepped in to support parents by caring for children for short periods. However, many urban families are socially isolated, and their extended family is non-existent or unavailable, especially for newcomers to Canada. The children in a family traumatized by crisis become especially at risk for neglect or abuse as their parents struggle to cope with crushing circumstances and emotions.
Remember, the end time of a P2P campaign is 12 a.m. PST on October 1st, 2024. Every moment counts, so let’s make the most of this opportunity to support families in crisis. The donations are processed through CanadaHelps, which ensures a smooth and secure process.
