W.A.F.F.L.E.S. (Wild About Family & Friends Learning Engineering & Science) Community Robotics is a not-for-profit, volunteer-operated organization located in Kingston, Ontario Canada. We have a family of community-based FIRST Robotics programs for youth aged 4 through 18. Our youngest students start off with LEGO DUPLO, with subsequent age groups moving on to LEGO robotics kits. Older students design, build and program custom metal robots with our high school students toping the scale with a 120lb robot. We are always in need of both technical and non-technical mentors to support our students and the time commitment can usually be adjusted to fit your availability.

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.
