About the Montreal Canadiens Children’s Foundation
The Montreal Canadiens Children's Foundation is a non-profit organization that encourages physical activity and the adoption of a healthy lifestyle among underprivileged youth aged 4 to 17 years old. Since its inception in August 2000, the Foundation has invested over $54.4 million in the community through its Bleu Blanc Bouge program and donations to more than 1,000 non-profits working for the well-being of the most vulnerable children across the province of Quebec. The Foundation fulfills its mandate in two ways: first, through a unique flagship project – the Bleu Blanc Bouge program – which consists of building and then activating community refrigerated and multisport rinks; secondly, by providing financial support to community organizations whose projects and programs enable children to adopt healthy lifestyles by being more active.
