Real Impact, Real Voices

The Sandbox Project was instrumental in helping us advance our mission during the 2024/25 school year. As a small, volunteer-run and youth-led nonprofit, it’s often challenging for us to access opportunities—but partnering with the Sandbox Project has been a game-changer. Their thoughtful funding model and incredible staff have provided meaningful in-kind support tailored to our needs.

Each year, many Canadian children need mental health support due to experiences of trauma and maltreatment, but long waitlists often leave caregivers unsure how to help. With support from the Sandbox Impact Project, the team developed online psychoeducation model prototypes informed by youth engagement, helping ensure the content meets the real needs of children, families, and the broader child welfare system.
