An important message to our supporters

Arts for Children and Youth places a high value on our relationship with you, our donors. Without your support we would not be able to achieve our mission to ally with high priority communities and empower marginalized children and youth by engaging them in hands-on, community- and school-based arts education programs that respect existing cultural and community activity, resulting in participatory action and social awareness.
We thank you for your commitment to us.

We believe that transparency and accountability are essential to our success. With this in mind, we have joined Imagine Canada’s Ethical Code Program.

The Ethical Fundraising and Financial Accountability Code lays out a set of standards for charitable organizations to manage and report their financial affairs responsibly. By adhering to these standards, we are complying with generally accepted practices for soliciting and managing donor dollars. This is important because you, our supporters, are entitled to transparency and the greatest impact possible for your investment in us.

If you have any questions about our adherence to the Ethical Code, please feel free to contact Julie Frost, Executive & Artistic Director (julie@afcy.ca). You can also download the Ethical Code itself on the Imagine Canada Ethical Code webpage.
