Help Strengthen SMILE's Ramadan Roots


Support and Strengthen SMILE’s roots this Ramadan to continue providing direct family support programs and services to children and youth with disabilities and their families

“The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) said: ‘The believers in their affection, compassion and love for one another are like one single body. If one part of it hurts, the whole body hurts.’” - [Sahih Muslim]

SMILE’s Roots are founded within ‘community’. We are rooted in principles of inclusion and equity and ensuring that every child and youth has a welcoming and supportive environment they can grow in!

Since the COVID-19 Pandemic began SMILE has seen a 53% growth in families we serve. This pandemic has disproportionately impacted racialized children and youth with disabilities and their families. 

We need YOUR support to sustain our direct family support programs such as 

  • COVID-19 Emergency Relief

    • Includes personal hygiene products, emergency household items, technology devices 

  • Financial Assistance Scholarships

    • Supports adaptive equipment, assistive technology, therapy and respite needs 

  • Parent Support Groups 

    • Parents and caregivers connect with one another and share valuable resources such as health, wellness and fitness with qualified instructor therapists and educators.

  • Service Navigation 

    • Provides 1-1 support connecting families with various government and private resources to support their child’s needs 

Direct Family Support 

Help SMILE provide 1-1 service navigation, parent coaching, parent and caregiver support group and more
