HOW YOU CAN HELP KIDS IN OTTAWA
The Children’s Aid Foundation of Ottawa (CAFO) is a children’s charity that helps support children, youth and families involved with children’s aid.
Parents and caregivers supported by The Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa (CASO) often face mental health challenges, poverty, or addiction, all of which can impact their ability to care for their children.
Your donations give access to education, enrichment, and essential opportunities to children and youth whose families need extra support.
AREAS OF FOCUS
Education
Education truly is the key to one’s success. Part of our mission is to help make educational success a reality for children and youth in the child welfare system.
Cookie Jar
The majority of the work CAS Ottawa does is with children and youth living at home; however, there are few resources available to support these families. That’s where the Cookie Jar comes in.
Youth Transition
Entering foster care and leaving foster care are two stressful times in a child’s life. Our Foundation tries to make them as comfortable and prepared as possible to tackle these momentous life changes.
Enrichment
For some families, summertime and the holiday season are not happy times. Camp for Kids and the Holiday Gift Program exist to try and change that.
