DEEP COMMITTMENT  Kinderville and its principals are deeply committed to assisting society. From regular support to Canadian Charity efforts, scholarships to deserving students, to assistance overseas, Kinderville acts as a catalyst and donor to several causes. Please click here to read what Profit Magazine says in its November 2007 issue. In 2004, the principals of Kinderville set up a bursary in perpetuity at Marianopolis College for Eastern Studies. The bursary will, each year, make payments to assist two students in pursuing a course in Eastern Studies. In 2005, Kinderville announced annual cash scholarships for deserving children.Scholarships and bursaries continue to be an important part of our annual effort. ANNUAL CHARITY DRIVE Every winter, we organize an annual community collection as part of our holiday spirit. The proceeds of this collection assist families in need.
The Kinderville Group is extremely proud of its staff and of all the parents and students within our organization who work to help underprivileged families every year. Thanks to this generosity, we are able to establish a large collection of non-perishable goods and completely fill a school bus every year.
Our goals is to provide a large contribution to those in need while teaching our students about generosity, sharing and goodwill toward others.
The following picture shows Kinderville Children delivering two busloads of non-perishable goods.
THE KINDERVILLE FOUNDATION Kinderville's management has, for several years set aside a portion of its earnings for charitable activities. Most recently, the Board of Directors decided to set aside a fixed portion of Kinderville's pre-tax profit for charitable activities. This includes all Kinderville's operations.
Moreover, all administration costs and support costs of the Foundation's activities are borne by Kinderville and its principals.
The Foundation's objective is primarily to act as a catalyst in supporting efforts that lead to the benefit of children.

ORGANISATION FOR THE PROTECTION OF CHILDRENS RIGHTSWith great pride the President of Kinderville accepted to be the Honorary Chair of the 7th International Conference of the Organization for the Protection of Children’s Rights (O.P.C.R) held in Montreal on May 27 and 28,2009.
The O.P.C.R is a registered Canadian charity celebrating its 25th Anniversary this year under the leadership of its founder Mr Riccardo Di Done. This year’s conference is an International Summit on Sustainable Best Practices in Programs for Children and Youth (Youth Leadership, Social Problems and Environment).
The Summit brought together eminent individuals from all over the world over a two day period to identify promising programs that would serve as best practices in dealing with children and youth pertaining to youth leadership, youth employability, children’s health, street gangs, violence, poverty, child labor, and trafficking. Experts will share their knowledge on successful projects to promote best practices on a global scale and then present recommendations that will help surmount difficulties faced every day by children. The ultimate goal of the summit is to advance the sustainability of best practices.
The Kinderville Foundation was established to help disadvantaged children throughout the world, primarily through education. This Summit will bring us a step closer to our goal of a world with no disadvantaged children.
