A Bright Start for Every Child – Our Education Programs
At Simcoe Muskoka Family Connexions, we believe that education holds the key to unlocking a world of possibilities for every child. Our Education programs ensure that no child faces barriers to learning due to financial vulnerability. With your support, we can equip young minds with the tools they need to embark on a journey of knowledge and success.
Backpacks Program
Our Backpacks program is a beacon of hope for children and youth facing financial hardship. By donating, you directly impact their lives, providing them with age-appropriate backpacks filled with essential school supplies. Your contribution bridges the education gap, ensuring that every child starts the academic year with the confidence and resources they deserve. A new backpack and school supplies not only mean preparedness but also instill a sense of pride and belonging among these young learners.
There are multiple ways to help our program:
1. Make a financial contribution so that we can purchase what these young learners need most!
If you prefer to make an e-transfer, it can be sent to simcas.finance@familyconnexions.ca with the note “Donation – Backpacks Program” in the message.
We also accept donations made by cash or cheque. Click here to find the office nearest you for dropping off or mailing in your donation.
