Right now you have the power to say: “I will not let his story end like this.” For a moment I thought she was my mommy. Her laugh sounded almost the same, and when the sun hits her hair just right, it’s exactly the same red as my mommy’s. I held my breath for a […]
I’ve been staying with foster parents ever since my parents died. It was an awful time in my life, but I’m getting through it. I’ve been working so hard in school! They say Grade 11 is one of the most difficult years, so I’ve made sure I stay focused on what’s important. I’d love to […]
Sometimes I wonder what people think of me. There are some grownups who tell me that I’m an inspiration to them, that they can’t believe I’ve done so well in my subjects. Then there are some of my classmates who always seem to be looking at me a bit funny, or seem really surprised when […]

I can hear the worry in her voice, the demands of raising a disabled boy and caring for her own aging body is starting to take its toll. She smiles through unshed tears as she tells us how well he is doing and how proud she is with his grades. Charmaine has been raising her […]
It’s just after 7am on a Saturday morning. The streets are still silent after yesterday’s shooting, not too far from our office in Scottsdene. I’m excited for the day; this is the day of our long awaited Easter party! We’ve worked hard, and we’re so thankful for everyone who donated to make this day a […]
We received a call about a one year old boy, Shane*, who showed sexual deviant behavior. This little boy is raised by a single mother, who doesn’t have the financial capacity to send him for an assessment. This is where we have the opportunity to make a difference. Thanks to you, our donators, Badisa Trio […]
