As 2017 draws to a close, we want to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a happy and safe holiday season.

We were thrilled to celebrate the student success donors like you make possible for Calgary Board of Education students.

With students in Calgary back in the classroom we wanted to highlight some of the amazing programs our donors have made possible and the impacts they are having on students.

With the traditional school year coming to a close, it’s a great time for a quick update on student impacts and valuable donation initiatives.

EducationMatters donors make incredible opportunities possible for students in the Calgary Board of Education and provide access to innovative programs, technology, and resources. Your support continues to make an important difference in the lives of Calgary students.

A grateful EducationMatters scholarship recipient wants to thank you, saying ” when you invest in a student’s education, you’re not just making a difference in one person’s life – you’re affecting the lives of many people to come.”

“For the first time in many years I was excited to pick up a book. I always felt nervous to read in front of others before, but this time it was ok. It was better than ok. I felt good to talk about the book and share it in front of my friends.”
