For the past 98 years, Easter Seals has played an important role in providing support for children and youth with physical disabilities. Thanks to our generous donors, we continue to offer programs that allow kids to experience freedom, independence and a sense of accomplishment. For families, Easter Seals is somewhere to turn for help when they need it.
Easter Seals is a registered charitable organization that helps children and youth with physical disabilities from all ethnic and religious backgrounds. We assist families with the purchase of essential mobility and accessibility equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, porch lifts and ramps, toileting aids and bathing equipment. Easter Seals also helps by providing summer camp opportunities at our two fully accessible properties, Camp Merrywood, near Perth, Ont. and Camp Woodeden, in London, Ont. In addition, Easter Seals offers post-secondary scholarships and provides access to information and resources, and public education and awareness.
Easter Seals helps kids BE KIDS.
