Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES –
Creating Accessible Responsive Education for Sharing

The Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES (Creating Accessible Responsive Education for Sharing) initiative focuses on expanding the accessibility of the Fort Edmonton Park experience to individuals, community groups, and schools that might be experiencing social, or economic barriers that limit their ability to access this vital educational experience. 

Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES – (Creating Accessible Responsive Education for Sharing) is an initiative that focuses directly on expanding the accessibility of the Fort Edmonton Park to children and youths. We want to ensure that schools, children, youth and families, without means, have the opportunity to experience Fort Edmonton Park like all other children. This includes any and all programming (including summer or day camps), and general access such as food and beverages.

Help me to raise funds in supporting the Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES initiative. Your donation will: 

Create memories for the next generation. 

Accessible to all individuals, schools, community groups, First Nations and Metis groups. 

Responsive to each groups request. 

Education of Edmonton and areas history.

Sharing through interactive experiences. 

Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES will help people in the community facing economic barriers that limit their access to visiting the Park because of costs such as admission, meals, and rides. The initiative will provide admission and an inclusive experience at Fort Edmonton Park  by working with organizations such as the Boys and Girls Clubs of Edmonton and many others. The Foundation has created this initiative to ensure that people facing challenges can access and enjoy the vital educational experience that Fort Edmonton Park provides.

Each donation of $100 will grant a full park experience for a child or youth. With your generous support, you can make a world of difference by bringing recreational and educational opportunities to children, youth, families, and schools with no other support.

“The Rotary Club of Edmonton Sunrise is very proud of our long-standing tradition of working with local schools and students, promoting the importance of reading, creativity, exercise and community awareness. Our club has been fortunate to have our clubs’ roots attached to the Fort Edmonton Park, our weekly breakfast meetings are hosted in the iconic Hotel Selkirk.
The opportunity for our club to participate in the Fort Edmonton Foundation CARES program marries to key pillars the club values very much; deserving youth from our community and the deep history and education that Fort Edmonton Park provides the Capital region. The Rotary Club of Edmonton Sunrise looks forward to the New Grand Re-Opening of Fort Edmonton Park and building on our connection with local students and youth and the Park.”
