We are most grateful to receive an extraordinary gift of $500,000 from the Rogers Family. #BoostCYAC would not exist the way it does today or be in a strong position to provide the services required when the current health crisis passes without the support of the Rogers family.
It's #NationalVolunteerWeek! We'd like to take the opportunity to thank our board members who volunteer their time to support Boost CYAC, providing their guidance and undying support for the organization.
Today is #WorldDownSyndromeDay! Help raise awareness by taking part in the #LotsOfSocks campaign by mix and matching your coolest and most colourful socks. Show your support and always remember that it’s our differences that make us great! #WDSD20#eachforequal
What a day! Thank you to all of our dippers and @TOPolarBearClub for yet another fantastic, and fresh, start to the new year. 👏
With $60,000 raised, 295 dippers and 50 teams, we could not be more grateful to the all who fundraised, donated and dipped! 💚 #DaretoDip

"We don't allow children to drink until a certain age. We don't allow them to drive... Yet nude images of them all over the internet are allowed to sit up and stay online.
We've completely lost our way and we need to step in and start doing more."

Boost CYAC works closely with our partner agencies to respond to child abuse cases across the city of Toronto. @TorontoPolice would like to make the public aware of an arrest made in a Sexual Assault investigation.
This is what is at stake......"Broader adoption of end-to-end encryption would cripple the efficacy of programs like PhotoDNA, significantly increasing the risk and harm to children around the world." (Dr. Hany Farid) https://t.co/0UaASqBXJI
Ontario requires schools to track violent behaviour, but the school board didn’t report this teen's attack to the education ministry. https://t.co/A2YvmOCfYw
