We are very happy to announce that We're Here For Ya Day is returning to Edmonton for the 13th consecutive year!
For thirteen years, Can Man Dan and community leaders from all walks of life have been supplying thousands of low-income children and their families with all of the basic necessities for the back-to-school season, which is traditionally a struggling time for families on a limited budget.
This year, free backpacks filled with school supplies, nutritious food hampers, and high quality haircuts will be made available to families and children who are in need.

URGENT CALL FOR DONORS
We are urgently seeking partners and donors to help make this event a success. Each year, this event is fully funded and run by the leaders and citizens our local community who care. If you're reading this, please consider donating and help us ensure that no child is left without. In 2024, we had to turn away approximately 300 families due to lack of donations and we're hoping that we don't run into that problem again this year -- please consider helping! You can donate safely online or arrange for us to pick up your donation at a destination of your choice!
