🎮 When Declan Desjarlais struggled to hold a VR controller due to limited hand function, he turned to the Rehabilitation Centre for Children for support.

With the help of his occupational therapist and a clinical engineering technologist, a custom attachment was designed to secure the controller to his wrist.

This simple but innovative solution improved comfort, accessibility and gave Declan more freedom, independence and confidence while gaming.

An incredible year for our Foundation and the youth we serve!

Thank you, donors, volunteers and supporters, for helping to raise an incredible annual revenue of $2.2 million, the highest fundraising record in CRF history.

This milestone represents more than a number; it reflects the life-changing impact being made for youth living with disabilities and their families across Manitoba. Thank you for helping us create communities where every child has the opportunity to thrive.

Please see the post below to read and share CRF's Donor Impact Report to spread the word across our wonderful community.

It’s an honour to reflect on the profound impact of donor generosity. Donors and supporters from all walks of life gave their time, talents and treasures abundantly.

On behalf of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, we are pleased to provide our Donor Impact Report for the year ending March 31, 2025. Supporters helped raise the bar to record heights this past year, propelling the Foundation into an uncharted and amazing realm. We celebrate their gifts, along with investment income, resulted in annual revenue of $2.2 million.

Our supporters represent the very best of people. Their “why” reasons for investing in this important cause make us smile and cry, often at the same time. They enrich young lives in countless ways and we extend our sincerest appreciation.

We encourage you to read and share our Donor Impact Report to spread the word across our wonderful community.
