On November 25, our team of volunteers participated in the 2025 CKNW Kids’ Fund Pledge Day — an annual radiothon dedicated to raising funds for children and families facing health challenges across BC. Our volunteers worked the phones, answering calls and taking donations to help kids and families in need access resources and assistance to overcome various health challenges.
Since 2016, Houle has been a proud supporter of Kids’ Fund Pledge Day. This year, we were thrilled to contribute a $10,000 donation, which will provide resources and grants for medical equipment, therapies, and educational support — all aimed at improving the overall quality of life for children and their families. For 2025, through the collective efforts of businesses and individuals across BC, the Kids’ Fund Pledge Day raised $1,805,885!

We’re proud to support the CKNW Kids’ Fund. It’s incredible to hear these inspiring stories and see how the program positively impacts the lives of the families who benefit from it.
