Easter Seals BC & Yukon is a trusted charity and established leader in supporting the disabled community. Since 1952, we have helped children and adults address life’s challenges and given them tools to build their self-esteem, self-confidence and sense of independence.
Because of you
Our son Nathan is in a wheelchair and is pretty much dependent on others for his care. The first year of dropping him off at camp was a bit scary – we couldn’t help but wonder if anyone else could take care of him the way we did at home. When we returned a week later to pick him up there was no doubt that sending him to camp was the best decision we had made for Nathan. Nathan was full of stories and new experiences he got to try at camp – he was already talking about returning next year!
