Every Child Matters
Every Child Matters (non-profit) creates a brighter future for our Saskatoon youth. The Saskatoon Indian and Metis Friendship Centre has been the home away from home for our Saskatoons youth since 1968. Our Youth program is a safe space that engages our inner city and high-risk youth in programming that involves sports activities, wellness support and cultural activities. Our youth team is designed to give youth a chance to communicate and be around positive role models that have had similar backgrounds.
SIMFC would like to thank Marilyn Sieben and Glenn Chuback for there support and bringing forward this idea in the “Spirit of Reconciliation”.
Your support will help us write a brighter future within your community!

Every Child Matters (non-profit) was created to assist youth with a chance to reconnect to
culture in a safe place away from home. Our Youth program creates a safe space that engages
our inner city and high-risk children in programming that involves sports activities, and cultural
activities throughout the day, smudge kits and access to supports like Mental Health, and
Elders. Our youth team is designed in a way that children have a chance to communicate and
be around positive role models that have had similar backgrounds. Our facility is open to the
youth 12hrs a day 5 days a week and our clients have the peace of mind of having security
available on site.
Our goal, for 2022- 2023 is to help as many of our high-risk youth to connect with culture, we
believe that strong roots in our culture give us a chance at success.
