About Us
“A compassion that can stand in awe at what the poor have to carry rather than stand in judgment at how they carry it.”
-Fr. Greg Boyle
Our Story
Adventure4Change is a registered Canadian charity organization that addresses issues related to poverty and inequity for children, youth, and families. We use an asset-based approach to development and encourage all of our efforts to be directed by local leadership and community residents. We believe that change comes about as individuals and communities are enabled to take greater responsibility. Our success is measured by how we prepare and equip people to live lives characterized by vitality and contribution.
The Team
Individuals and relationships form the core of the human experience, and we are fortunate to have an amazing team here at Adventure 4 Change. Programs, activities, strategies, models, and organizations play an important role.
However, at the end of the day, it is always about individual people and the quality of our relationships. University students, volunteers, parents, partnering agencies, many community friends…this is our outstanding team.
VISION
Every child and youth living a life of opportunity, hope, vitality and contribution.
Partners
Our stakeholders are individuals who engage with A4C through our programs, events, and volunteer opportunities. This includes participants, leaders, volunteers, community partners, and local organizations who support a preventative and community led approach to the well-being of the communities.
