"Youth resilience isn’t just about bouncing back— it’s about rising stronger, learning from challenges, and pushing forward with courage."
Empowering Youth, Building Resilience
As we embark on another exciting season at Harbourside Youth Foundation, we remain steadfast in our mission: to provide underserved youth with access to non-traditional sports, fostering confidence, resilience, and opportunity.
The Power of Resilience
Resilience is at the heart of everything we do. Through sports like crossfit, rock climbing, martial arts and mountain biking, we help young people navigate challenges, build self-belief, and develop skills that extend beyond the playing field. These experiences cultivate perseverance, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities that serve them for life.
Growing Our Impact
Thanks to your generosity, our programs have expanded to reach more youth than ever before. We are seeing more athletes applying for sponsorship. How can you help?
- Donate monthly, if we had 30 people donating 100.00 per month we would continue to be able to say YES to our applications
- Donate a one time donation
All donations will receive a tax receipt

"If any CrossFit gym is hosting a Spring Break camp, we’d love to sponsor underserved youth to participate! Please reach out if you’re organizing a camp or have any questions. We’d love to collaborate!"

Help Us Get 10 Youth to the Finish Line!
We’re sponsoring 10 amazing young athletes to run the Sun Run, but they need the right gear to cross the finish line strong!
A good pair of running shoes can make all the difference—and we need YOUR help to make it happen. $100 covers one pair, and every donation brings us closer to our goal!
Donate today and give these kids the support they need to chase their goals.

What is our why?
Harbourside Youth Foundation exists because every child deserves the chance to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. We believe that non-traditional sports can be a powerful tool for transformation-building confidence, resilience, and leadership skills in young people who might not otherwise have access to these opportunities.
