Charitable Registration # 73916 9886 RR0001
Our Vision of Success: A greater community of youth who are empowered to be confident, kind, inclusive, resilient and healthy.
Our Mission: Trained comedian coaches introduce comedy and healthy humour to young people in grades four to twelve.
Our Beliefs:
- We need to pay attention to all four parts of our well-being—our body, our mind, our spirit/social life, and our emotions.
- We need to be comfortable talking about how we feel. It’s normal to respond to life with a variety of emotions. There are no good or bad feelings.
- There is a close relationship between comedy and well-being. Using healthy humour is an effective way to deal with life’s challenges. When we are laughing, it’s hard to be angry or stressed.
