The Youth Centres provide nutritious snacks and meals, homework help, art and music programs, sports equipment, and mentoring in a warm, supervised environment. Huberdeau and Kirkland will help meet the centres’ most pressing need — combating food insecurity — through financial contributions matched by the Calgary Flames Foundation, as well as through regular visits and ongoing engagement with the youth.
The Calgary Flames Foundation strives to improve the lives of southern Albertans through support of health and wellness, education, and grassroots sports. Since inception the Calgary Flames Foundation has been working to help kids play and prosper and has donated over $65 million to southern Alberta charities.
