Core Supporters

We became a founding sponsor, as we recognized the differences Kids Up Front could make in the lives of so many." Heather Shaw, Executive Chair, Corus Entertainment Inc.

The generosity of individuals, organizations, and businesses throughout the community means Kids Up Front is gifted with thousands of tickets and opportunities to distribute to kids in Calgary and area every year.

Making the distribution process possible and helping KIDS maximize our reach and potential are those funders and businesses that support our core programs and day-to-day operations.
