Welcome to CityKidz.ca

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and learn about City Kidz.

For over 15 years City Kidz has been impacting the lives of children living in Hamilton’s inner city. We’ve always believed that every child, no matter their circumstance, deserves the opportunity to achieve greatness and fulfill their God given potential. Because of this, we are motivated to do all we can to transform the lives of inner-city children, break the cycle of hopelessness and end child poverty.

As you journey through this website, you will discover the mission, the vision and all the things that we value most. You will have the opportunity to learn about the core impact programs, and the unique projects that are building resiliency in the lives of our kids. Before you leave, we hope you will find your own entry point and opportunity to become part of the City Kidz mission.

Welcome to City Kidz, we’re so glad you’re here!

Close.

More Child Sponsors wanted for City Kidz

She loved the dedication and enthusiasm shown to each child. “We all help Haiti (and other areas) … but this is in our own back yard.” Poor countries still need help, she added, but “to see it in our back yard, this, to me, is a priority.”
