It truly does take a village ❤️

S&DCF provides free programs and training to schools and communities across Canada, and today, we'd like to thank our grantors and corporate partners, who provide the vital resources needed to make our work possible.

Through our supporters' generosity, we can grow programs, support more schools, and reach youth across Canada. Their commitment ensures that financial barriers never stand in the way of students gaining access to debate and the lifelong skills it builds.

Some of our amazing partners include:
- Osler
- McCarthy Tétrault
- Canadian Tire
- KPMG

If you'd ever like to make a donation to the S&DCF, you're welcome to at any time!

A donation of $1,000, for example, supports one school debate program for a year.

Supporters are also welcome (and encouraged!) to join us at our annual Golf Tournament Charity, happening this Saturday!

Hi Everyone! Speech and Debate Canada is asking everyone to fill out a short survey due by May 27th!

Speech and Debate Canada Foundation operates entirely on donor funding to provide quality programs to youth across Canada.

This year, we embarked on several new partnerships in our drive to reach even more students. We have been very successful, having added another 49 schools to our roster with an additional 1000 students in weekly programs, and another 300 joining us throughout the year for other programming. While growth in numbers is measurable based on who signs on to join us, we would also like to hear general feedback from the students and teachers we were able to help.

Similar to the beginning of year programming, we have a very short survey for our end of year programming. A lot of new programs ran throughout the year and so we are hoping to receive feedback regardless of which program you joined us in. As you complete this survey keep focus on where you are now after taking one of our programs.

We will award the school with the most respondents a $300 prize for their debate journey.
