Mission Statement
The Quinte Children’s Foundation’s mission is to raise funds to prevent child abuse and neglect and to improve the quality of life of those it affects.
Our mandate is to fund child-centered healing activities, be a public voice against child abuse, help parents be better parents, and reward the personal achievement of our young students.
By helping children who have been abused regain their self esteem and confidence through group activities and play, we break the cycle by healing those who are most at risk of re-offending.
All our efforts support local children and families in Hastings County and surrounding areas.
Description
In Hastings County Ontario on May 1st, 1991, Quinte Regional Children’s Foundation* was founded to help children who have been abused or neglected and to help prevent further suffering.
The Quinte Children's Foundation is the fund raising arm of the Hastings Children's Aid Society. Our mission is to raise funds for programs that let these children be kids again and to raise public awareness that encourages adults to protect the innocent.
In 18 years we have touched the lives of over 3,500 children in need and helped over 900 families learn better parenting skills through counseling.
We cannot change what has happened to these children, but we can help them heal and break the cycle of abuse and stop abuse before it happens…
* Name changed to Quinte Children’s Foundation in 2002
