BATSHAW CENTRES FOUNDATION


PAVING THE WAY FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE.

WHO WE ARE


​The Batshaw Youth and Family Centres Foundation is a registered charitable organization. The Foundation’s mission is to help break the cycle of neglect, abuse, and failure experienced by many children aged 0-18 years and their families. 
The Foundation supports the clients of the Batshaw Youth and Family Centres, living on the island of Montreal, when public funds are not available.

Through different annual fundraising initiatives, the Foundation raises an average of $250,000 per year to fund programs of assistance offered to youth living with their own families, in foster care, in  residential placement and transitioning to independent living.

The Foundation’s funds are designed to create an environment for youth to feel empowered and help pave the way for a brighter future.

Scholarships

Education is a direct means to breaking the cycle of poverty. You can provide current and former Batshaw youth with the opportunity to receive post-secondary education or job skills training - and continue in their journey of perseverance. 

Donate

Family Emergencies

Given the current pandemic, you can put groceries and emergency supplies in the homes of those who need it most. Basic needs are something most of us take for granted. By providing food, baby supplies, dental assistance, help paying hydro or phone bills, rent support, etc., you become instrumental in strengthening a parent's ability to keep their children safely at home.

Donate

Independent Living

Living on your own for the first time can be exciting, and scary. You can provide financial support to prepare youth in placement, nearing age 18, with little or no family support, to live on their own for the first time.

Donate

Camp Weredale

You can give children in Batshaw’s care the opportunity to enjoy a stimulating outdoor experience at this specialized summer camp, where they will connect with both nature and other youth; it is often a truly transformative experience. 

Donate

Cooking Workshops

You can teach children aged 6-18 years how to prepare healthy and simple meals. These essential skills help them to be more self-sufficient, eat better and save money - all while promoting a healthier lifestyle.
