The goal of the 100 Kids movement is to have each participant donate $10 to their favourite charity.
With more than 180 kids attending an information session and launch party Sept. 13 in Kelowna, the 100 Kids chapter is now ready to give away their first $1,000.

The concept behind 100 Kids is for youth ages 5 to 17 to meet four times a year to nominate their favourite charity to be a recipient of their $10 donation. Making a difference, public speaking, access to community leaders and networking with their peers are the underpinnings of the 100 Kids volunteer movement.
Deacon says at the Kelowna followup event this week, participating kids will be asked to publicly reveal what charity they chose to support and why.
香蕉视频直播淭he awesome thing about the ICan app is that is a COPA compliant, safe environment for the Kids+parents to connect with each other, donate their $10. It connects the Kids in between events and keeps the positive momentum going,香蕉视频直播 Deacon said.
The team at ICan even helped find a matching donor so any fees to process the donations will be covered.
