The Kids that Care Project is an initiative of
Newf Friends in honour of two special children who have shown great compassion towards animals.

Send us your stories of children who have helped animals in need and we will share them here, to encourage other children to do the same.

Thank you Kyran!

 

Hi my name is Kyran, I am 8 years old and for the Newf Friend’s rescue, I was able to collect and roll 2100 pennies for a total of $21.00. 


My nanny Jane helps with the Newf rescue and she told me that the Newf Friends rescues needed to raise money to help with dogs that are sick and hurt. So I started collecting pennies to hand in at the Newf Stock day in Bancroft.
This note was attached to the bag of pennies that Kyran donated to Newf Friends at NewfStock.

I had a jar of pennies of my own already so I decided that I don’t need them as much as the sick and hurt dogs so I decided to put them towards my fundraising for the newfs. I searched my house for all the pennies I could find and I asked my neighbours if they had pennies they could donate.

I spent 3 nights with my nanny rolling all the pennies. I have my own Landseer Newfoundland dog named Miley who I love so much. I would do anything to help other dogs feel better and I feel good about helping them as much as I can. 

Newfy lover,
Kyran
