Cassie and Friends was established in 2007 in Vancouver by parents, David Porte and Debbie Setton, along with five other families all affected by Juvenile Arthritis. Cassie was 18-months old when she woke up one morning unable to walk. Soon after, she was diagnosed with Juvenile Idopathic Arthritis. Dealing with the devastating news of his daughter's condition, David was inspired to raise funds for juvenile arthritis by running in the Scotiabank Charity Challenge 5km. He raised over $25,000 in the first year. Since then, through the genrousity of many individuals, families and corporations, Cassie and Friends has raised over $450,000 in support of world-leading research, educational programming, child and family support services and much-needed medical equipment for Juvenile Arthritis sufferers. We look forward to growing our support of the kids and families who suffer daily from this painful disease - and ultimately improving their quality of life and expected outcomes.

BB4CK works in partnership with Calgary schools to make and deliver free healthy lunches for students who would otherwise go hungry. Through the work of community groups and volunteers, we provide about 2,000 lunches each day. Lunches are prepared in our main kitchen, and in various other locations by community groups including retirees, parent groups and local businesses. Nourishment is available to any young person who arrives at school without enough to eat. BB4CK works with school staff members to identify needs and to plan how best to make sure hungry students get the nutrition required to think clearly and learn. By enabling better education outcomes, BB4CK gives students a hand up, not just a handout. Each lunch costs only about $1 to make. Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids has one goal: no hungry kids in Calgary.
