Annual Report 2019

PARTNERING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION


In 2019, as we celebrated 25 years of delivering classroom-based, curriculum-aligned educational programming across Canada, we also set out an ambitious new Impact Strategy 2020-2022 to strengthen our programs, build our partnerships and deepen our impact.
 
The world is facing challenges that require innovation and entrepreneurialism, connection and collaboration, and visionary leadership that marries technology, creativity and compassion. More than ever before we need the skills, energy and voices of youth who will lead the change needed to meet and overcome these challenges.
 
Our vision is a Canada where creativity and critical thinking are possible for every child.

Through partnership, we can achieve our mission to inspire and equip students today to become the problem solvers and change makers of tomorrow.

Read more about what’s ahead for 2020 and beyond from President & CEO Debra D. Kerby and Chair of the Board Steven R. Wolff.

“Parents are really happy that we’ve included Indigenous materials in the Welcome to Kindergarten bag. The online learning resources have been adapted to include songs and videos, and there is even a M’ikmaq recipe book. Parents tell us it has made the program even more relevant and meaningful to them and to their children.”

Jennifer Nangreaves
Director of Abegweit First Nation Early Childhood Centre, Prince Edward Islan

“It was truly inspiring to see how passionate each student was in delivering a high-quality experience. Entrepreneurial Adventure gives students an experience that would be hard to come by in a traditional classroom setting.”

Adam Barrett, Treasury & Payment Specialist, Eastern, Central & Northern Ontario Division, BMO

Financials

Managing fiscal realities and investing strategically for sustainable growth

In 2019, the organization redefined its financial strategy and governance approach, the key to which is a move towards a balanced budget by 2022 consistent with the best practice in the charitable sector.
