2025 Back to School Program

Our annual Back to School program, held in August 2025, equipped 500 children from Montreal, Trois-Rivieres and Quebec with all the school supplies required to begin the school year.

Studies show that youth living in underprivileged neighbourhoods have a higher risk of dropping out of school, have decreased self-esteem, and are at an increased risk to develop learning disabilities. This program aims to level the playing field by offering all children equal opportunity. Our hope, is that in doing so, we ultimately increase their chances to persevere and succeed in school. 

We wish to extend a warm thank you to all of our donors and sponsors that contributed to the program’s success. We would particularly like to express our utmost gratitude to Manmade for their extremely generous donation that allowed us to extend our reach from 250 to 500 children. It is through our collective efforts that we are able to create equal opportunities and foster a brighter future for all children, regardless of their family’s financial situation.
