The Children’s Aid Foundation of Ottawa (CAFO), formerly known as Champions for Children Foundation was established in 1988 as a charitable organization to raise funds for essential programs that are not provided by the government. These programs assist children and young adults in the care of the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa (CAS).
Over the years, with the support of our donors, our volunteers and our community, we have been raising funds to provide enrichment and education programs assisting at risk children and young adults in our community by giving them the chance to experience a joyful childhood and promoting a positive life experience for the future.
