About the Organization

The Rideau Trail Association (RTA) is a charitable, volunteer-run organization with two main roles:

First, it coordinates and promotes self-propelled activities such as hiking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing and other outdoor activities.  Hikes and other activities are led by certified and experienced hike leaders.  Hikes are suitable for beginner, intermediate and advanced hikers.
Second, it stewards over 40 trails that span over 450 km. The main trail, known as the Rideau Trail, is roughly 325 km in length, and goes between downtown Kingston and downtown Ottawa.
Our Mission
To promote, encourage and conduct responsible hiking and similar self-propelled activities while stewarding the Rideau Trail network.
<strong>Our Vision</strong>
A community of engaged hikers; a legacy of enduring trails.

The RTA has three Clubs that conduct led hikes and other activities throughout the year.  Clubs are located in Kingston, Central (Perth area), and Ottawa.

Nanny Angel Network

Nonprofit
The Nanny Angel Network is a registered charity and the only organization of its kind in Canada. We have been providing free, specialized childcare support and programs to families living with cancer since 2009. Three main goals that drive everything we do: Provide specialized, Child Life-informed childcare support and programs for parents with cancer to give them the time they need to take care of themselves and reduce existing social support burn-out. Build resiliency in children by teaching life-long coping skills. Provide a sense of normalcy for children during a tumultuous time in their lives. Backed by 30 years of nanny agency experience, NAN has continued to successfully provide free resources for cancer patients and their families for over a decade. We support families at any point during the cancer journey. We’re there from the time of diagnosis, during treatment or through palliative care. We continue to support families who need help for up to a year during the bereavement period.
