Upcoming Events

Christmas Shows

It’s that time of year again, when we begin to prepare for our annual Christmas Shows! With the help of sponsors and donors like you, we plan to invite 700+ children from underprivileged backgrounds to celebrate holiday festivities. There will be arts and crafts workshops, song and dance, interactive shows by professional animators, lots of delicious warm food, and to top the day off, the children will receive many useful and fun Christmas gifts. 

Help us make this event another success for our local children!

Love on Trial

Children Now is proud to present Love on Trial: The Family and the Justice System, a powerful Canadian documentary directed by Ricaardoe Di Done, founder and CEO of Children Now.

​

Currently on the international film festival circuit, the film sheds light on the profound impact of family breakdown and the justice system on children. Through Riccardo’s 18-year custody battle, combined with expert insights from leading voices in family law and child psychology, Love on Trial calls for a more compassionate, child-centered approach to resolving conflict.

From July 7–9, 2021, Children Now held its 10th International Symposium: Youth Leadership and Climate Action. Following the Symposium, a Charter of Global Ecological Responsibilities was launched. Its goal is to safeguard the rights of present and future generations to a healthy, ecologically balanced environment—by supporting the protection and care of the Earth, and empowering youth to think holistically and find creative solutions to today’s ecological challenges.
