Making an Impact

All donations and funds raised in support of Boys and Girls Club or Big Brothers Big Sisters will be matched up to 50% through Rogers Birdies for Kids by AltaLink during the period of March 1 to August 30 of 2025.

 

Alberta has one of the youngest populations across Canada, and the Red Deer area is no exception. Our communities are full of young minds and hearts that have big dreams and open futures. We invite you to become a part of those futures by making them a little bit brighter.

All funds donated to Youth HQ will be used to support one of our various programs, whether your donation goes towards training a volunteer, supporting a mentor relationship, or even providing snacks. It is our desire that no young person be turned away from a program due to social or financial barriers. We believe every youth deserves the opportunity to grow and develop in healthy environments, so we make every effort to reduce or eliminate barriers that would prevent participation.

No donation is too small; whatever the value, your contribution can make all the difference for a young life. On behalf of Red Deer & District, we’re grateful for your gifts and thank you for your support.
