TimberKids, the charitable branch of Timber Mart locations throughout the region has generously donated to The Children’s Foundation. Their contribution aims to eliminate financial obstacles for underserved children, granting them access to sports, growth, and learning opportunities. By supporting TCF’s Flagship initiatives, Playing for Keeps and Camps of Hope, TimberKids is paving the way for kids to engage in sports and camp activities that will positively shape their lives.
“We know how significant it is for a child to participate in extra-curricular activities like sports and camp. The benefits to a child’s self-esteem, confidence, coping mechanisms, and resilience are profound and capable of changing the trajectory of a disadvantaged life. We are thankful for this community partnership and the generous support from TimberKids which is set to make a difference in the lives of many.” Melanie Cressman, Executive Director TCF.
“Timber Mart is deeply committed to its communities, recognizing our responsibility as business owners to give back. Through our TimberKids charity, we focus on supporting youth who need financial assistance. The Children’s Foundation is an ideal partner for this regional donation. These funds will support youth in sports and camp programs. We believe participating in these activities fosters teamwork, resilience, and social skills while promoting physical health, emotional growth, and lasting friendships. This encourages the development of well-rounded individuals; ready to face future challenges.”
The Children’s Foundation provides, and funds programs ensuring all children and youth in Hastings, Northumberland, and Prince Edward Counties have social and physical opportunities to explore, learn, play, and thrive.
