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.

Way to go Kayleigh!

She's done it again!!!!!  12 year old Newf Friends and HART supporter Kayleigh has done another fundraising initiative.  This time she had an entrepreneurship fair at school and had to write a business case and develop a product for sale at school.  She decided to do her dog treats and part of her business plan was to see 50% of her profits go to rescue.  Not only did she raise money for Newf Friends but she also won a certificate for best presentation and was selected to move forward and set up another display in one of the local malls.  Way to go Kayleigh!!!
Here's what she had to say about her latest fundraiser, "I have sold my Kayleigh’s K-9 Kookies at my school and RDSB entrepreneur ship fair and decided to give 50% of all my profit to Newf rescue. At both competitions I had sold
60$ worth of dog treats and toys after my expenses which means 60$ goes to Newf rescue. My mother and I also decided to donate a little bit more money to Newf rescue to get a grand total donation of 75$. I hope this money has helped an animal in some way!  
-Thanks, Kayleigh (12 years)"   

Thank you Kayleigh for all of your support!  You're an inspiration!

100 Toys in 100 Days

 

8 year old Ty and his 6 year old  brother Riley are kicking off March Break with a special toy drive for HART and Newf Friends.

The boys hope to get 100 dog toys donated over the next 100 days!  How great is that?  As a foster family for Newf Friends and HART these boys know all about taking great care of their foster dogs.  Having safe toys to play with is a terrific stress reliever for dogs in foster care and Ty and Riley want to make sure that all foster dogs have toys.

Thank you so much Ty and Riley!

If you would like to donate a toy or giftcard to Ty and Riley's toy drive, please email us to find out where to drop off or mail your donation.
