About

Childhood Now

SUPPORTING COMMUNITIES TO EMPOWER, EDUCATE, AND CARE FOR THEIR VULNERABLE CHILDREN

Mission

To empower communities with the knowledge, skills, strategies, and self confidence to form and successfully run their own community based programs by supporting the well-being of vulnerable and at-risk children.

Vision

A world in which all children have the opportunity to explore, express, and connect with their identity through art and play

The Big Little Caravan

The Big Little Caravan of Joy is the arts program of Childhood Now. We run year-round and specialty arts- and play-based programming in several countries in Africa, and in First Nations and Métis communities across Ontario, Manitoba, and British Columbia.

Through these programs, we are able to bring thousands of deserving children engaging and creative arts experiences designed to engage, educate, and empower.

Coming together to support vulnerable children through programming that works. We support a sustainable and developmental approach, as opposed to a charitable response.
