Kids Canada (Kids Can) and Uganda Kids Canada (U Kids Can) kids helping kids -crossing all cultural and economic borders for fun!
KIDS CANADA -kids helping kids.
We connect schools and organizations to break through the glass walls of cultural stereotypes, gender and racial discrimination, dependency and entitlement -crossing all cultural and economic borders for fun. We educate and empower our kids beyond text books and school walls through cultural exchanges of arts and technology. Because we believe that a kids’ home life impacts their success in and out of school, we support the family unit as whole by kick starting micro businesses and sustainable health and nutritional projects. Kids are often seen as vulnerable and dependent but we see them as they are; they inspire, play and work hard at everything that is thrown their way.

IT TAKES A VILLAGE
We believe in the adage that “it takes a village to raise a child.” Every child is unique and many organizations cannot support the needs of every child due to limited resources. Kids Canada (KC) and Uganda Kids Canada (UKC), a Kids Canada initiative, are organizations that believe in hand ups not handouts. By helping to connect schools and organizations in Uganda and in Canada, no kid is left behind.
