Wheels 2025 was a fantastic (and hot) day at Kelso Conservation Area! Among the many stories that shaped the day, we witnessed two incredible young women, Emily and Abby, walking in honour of their sister and best friend, who spent her final weeks at The Darling Home for Kids. Emily carried a sloth stuffed animal dressed in a butterfly t-shirt – her sister’s favourite – bringing her memory with her to the top of the escarpment. Meanwhile, Abby poured her heart into raising more than $500 for DHK, baking and selling cookies to give back to the place that cared so deeply for her best friend. Their strength, love, and determination were a beautiful reminder of the lasting impact of the care provided at DHK. Thanks to the support of sponsors, participants and volunteers, this year’s event raised over $104,000 in support of essential care for medically complex children and their families. Join us on Sunday, June 28th for Wheels 2026!
Thank you to all the golfers, sponsors, and volunteers who joined us for this year’s DHK Classic. Golfers enjoyed a fantastic day on the course — taking part in our Air Cannon, testing their skills in the chipping challenge on the putting green, savouring delicious offerings from the BBQ, and much more! The energy and enthusiasm of the day truly reflected the spirit of our community coming together for a great cause, raising over $109,000 in support of the children and families at The Darling Home for Kids. Save the date for next year – Thursday, September 17th, 2026 at Royal Ontario Golf Club!
What a ride! On Saturday, July 26, teams rallied in support of The Darling Home for Kids – solving clues, finding wild landmarks, and navigating mystery stops in a three-leg challenge full of laughs and teamwork. It was a sun-soaked day filled with scenic routes, a few wrong turns, and a whole lot of fun, all in support of the children and families who rely on our care. We are thrilled to share that this year’s event raised $49,300 in support of essential care for medically complex children and their families. Thank you to everyone who joined the adventure and made the Rally such a fun and meaningful day!
Thank you to everyone who attended The Red Door Gala, bid in our auctions, and made this such a special night of fundraising and fun. It was an incredible celebration of generosity, raising vital funds for our essential programs and services. This year’s event was a resounding success, raising $243,000 – an incredible amount to support our Home, our children and their families. We can’t wait to see you next year!
