Community Fundraising Events In Support of KidsAbility

Thank you to everyone in our community who has supported KidsAbility Foundation through our community engagement events and initiatives. We are re-imagining new ways to partner with individuals and groups in our community as well as bring our KidsAbility events to you in a safe and engaging way during the current COVID-19 circumstances. 

What's Happening Now:

• Jeff Poolton's Songs of the Season Virtual Concert
  
  
  Save the evening on November 29th for an hour-long Songs of the Season Virtual Concert! Special thanks to Jeff Poolton, a talented local singer/songwriter and entertainer who is donating his performance as a benefit fundraiser in support of KidsAbility. This event will be a live-stream Facebook offering! Jeff has proudly performed this annual fundraiser for several years in support of KidsAbility this year it is being changed to a virtual edition. This fundraiser is an opportunity for children and youth to achieve great things at home, at school and in their community when contributions are made to the Songs of the Season Virtual Concert donation page during the concert. 

• Price Gives Back November Fundraiser: Building a Better Community One Patient at a Time
  
  Husband and wife team, Doctors Jason and Tara Price of PRICE HEALTH have chosen KidsAbility as the beneficiary of their PRICE Gives Back Fall Fundraiser. From November 9th – November 30th, for every new patient booking physiotherapy & chiropractic consultations who mention the promotion, PRICE HEALTH will donate half the value of the new patient fee to raise funds for kids, youth & families!  At the end of the month, a donation in the amount of the total tally of new patient fees will be made back to KidsAbility.
