Testimonials

Here's what the community thinks of FUN!

"Thanks to the generous support of Maia Green and the Friends Uniting for Nature Society, otherwise known as the FUN Society, Reina Girvan-Randall and her team were able to launch their first Earthfest in 2012. In 2013, Madame Speaker, Campus View’s Earthfest won a national prize – one of only 10 schools from 600 submissions to receive 25,000$ in computer equipment from Staples Canada.This past week marked the 3rd year that Campus View hosted its community wide Earthfest — the goal always being to have fun and create broader community environmental awareness and change."  Andrew Weaver (Spoken in the House of Commons)

“Just so you know..... the whole car full of kids were raving about the camp today!  They had SO much fun.  Excellent job!  Thanks so much. See you tomorrow”

…

“The kids are still having a blast at your camp.  They just love you to death!  Thanks so much for making it such a positive and happy experience for them.  They are starting to get pooped from the long days and adventures.”

The FUN Champs program supports future leaders by providing practical mentorship and funding to make passion projects a reality. The staff and volunteers at FUN Society help participants develop practical skills in order to put great ideas into action. My son was thrilled to be a FUN Champ in 2013 - it is a great way to connect community challenges with community solutions.

I love FUN Champs because it helps kids make a big difference in the community. It was cool to get money towards making my passion project happen in real life.
