Thank you to everyone in our community who has supported KidsAbility Foundation through our community engagement events and initiatives. We are re-imagining new ways to partner with individuals and groups in our community as well as bring our KidsAbility events to you in a safe and engaging way during the current COVID-19 circumstances. 

What's Happening Now:

• September 1 – 30, 2020: Lowe’s Canada Heroes campaign – Kitchener location

It’s official! KidsAbility Foundation is Lowe’s chosen local hero charity by our community friends at Lowe’s Kitchener during the Lowe’s Canada Heroes campaign for the month of September.

Be a local hero with us! Lowe’s Kitchener - 730 Ottawa St. South location is offering the chance to give to the Lowe’s Canada Heroes campaign with tag of $2, $5, or $10 in-store.
