No Child Left Behind

Our No Child Left Behind program provides an opportunity to improve the physical and mental health of ALL children in our local area, Kitchener-Waterloo. With your help, we can cover the costs of their bus fares, memberships, equipment, tournament fees & more.

Membership

With your donation, kids are able to train multiple times a week. Membership fees also help run and maintain a clean and safe gym for all of the children.

Equipment

Equipment like gloves, shin guards, head gear and more are needed to train safely and effectively. As the students move up in levels, they need to upgrade their gear.

Tournament Fees

Unfortunately Canada doesn't offer financial help for martial arts tournaments. Tournament fees can start to add up between transportation, entry fees, hotels and more.

Transportation

Not all of our students can get a ride to the gym. Your fees will help towards their bus tickets and ubers.

Grading Fees

Grading is an important part of martial arts. Not only does it give the students a goal to work towards, it opens up more opportunities come tournament time.

ROTD Camps

Many families work over the school holidays and struggle to find affordable camps for their kids to stay at. Your donation will help send a kid to camp so they can stay active and maintain a positive mindset.

How Sponsorship Works

Connecting With The Community

We partner with businesses or individuals like yourselves and go over the benefits for both the child and the sponsor. Once you have been paired with a child, we introduce you and begin training our new student.

Plan For Success

As time goes on, we evaluate the students needs and create a plan to maximize their experience. Transportation, gear, and training fees are just some of the costs you help cover over the course of the year.
