The Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) Champions for Kids
Foundation (C4K) received more great news today, with a donation of $1,000 from
the Uppity
Improv Society.
C4K executive members Director of Education Stephen Sliwa, Secretary
Lisa Workman, Member at Large Diana Kingston and Director of Communications
Cindy Peters, were joined by a cast of characters from the comedy group for the
cheque presentation. Laura Oliver, who is the Director of Marketing and
Community Outreach for the C4K Foundation, was also on hand as a member of the
improv team.
The funds will be used to support UCDSB families in allowing their
children to participate in sports, arts and other fun activities outside of
school hours, as well as unique needs like covering minor medical expenses
(i.e. eyeglasses), providing gas cards to parents with a child in the hospital,
or purchasing a winter coat for a child who needs warmth.
David Morrison, C4K president “We are thrilled to receive a donation
from this fantastic group. The Oliver family are dedicated supporters of the
Foundation, and we are grateful for the generosity and thoughtfulness of them
and their team in providing this donation today.”
The community theatre group was founded in February of 2014, and has
raised funds for numerous charitable organizations in the area since then.
