Kidsafe Project Society Kidsafe’s mission is to provide nurturing safe havens for at-risk inner-city elementary school students when schools are traditionally closed. School is where children learn, play, eat, make friends, discover role models, develop life-long skills and find help in a crisis. KidSafe keeps schools open after school and during winter, spring and summer breaks for nearly 400 of Vancouver’s inner-city elementary students. KidSafe keeps them safe, and provides healthy meals, learning and recreation activities free of charge, in a caring, fun environment that’s geared to make these vulnerable children shine.

Raise a Reader is an award winning National literacy campaign to help create awareness and raise money to support literacy in communities across Canada. Since 2002 the program has raised $7.45 million to help establish and support local literacy campaigns. One hundred percent of all money raised goes directly to local and national beneficiaries of Raise a Reader. Encouraging others to improve their reading skills is an investment in our community and our future. Assante Wealth Management has been a proud sponsor of the CanWest Raise-a-Reader program since 2004, and has gifted a quarter of a million dollars a year to the cause.
