Host Your Own Fundraiser

Kids Kottage Foundation is Edmonton and area's only crisis prevention and intervention shelter for infants and children.

When a family is under toxic levels of stress, whether it be from homelessness, the effects of poverty, mental or physical health barriers, abuse, or whatever the case – so are the children – they are the hidden victims.

Our mission is to ensure every infant and child is kept safe, and their families are provided with the resources they need to build a strong and resilient future. We operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year ensuring children’s basic needs are met, and connecting their caregivers with the resources they need.

As a non-profit organization, we heavily rely on the support of our community to help us keep our doors open.

Each year, Kids Kottage is responsible for raising over half of our annual operating budget in order to continue to provide a safe place for Edmonton’s most vulnerable infants, children, and families.

If you or your business are interested in hosting your own fundraiser in support of Kids Kottage - first of all, thank you! It really is because of generous people like you we are able to provide a safe space for hundreds of infants and children each year.
