$300K for 300 Kids
Every dollar matched until December 31 — double your impact today.
Together, We Can Build Bright Futures!
Across BC, thousands of neurodivergent children are struggling to learn, feeling defeated and left behind. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
The Bright Futures Bursary Fund removes financial barriers so families can access the specialized, confidence-building instruction their children need to learn, develop, and succeed. Every dollar you give will be matched and help transform the lives of children, youth, and adults with learning and brain-based differences like dyslexia, ADHD, and autism.
With less than 5% of our funding from government sources, we rely on generous supporters like you to help more learners thrive each year.
Join us in raising $300K to support 300 vulnerable learners across BC.

A sudden layoff made specialized help feel out of reach. The Bright Futures Bursary Fund opened the door to individualized support that met Bruna’s kids where they are, helping them thrive and restoring her hope for their future.

Why I Give
“I am proud to support LDS because of the important work it is doing to empower and support individuals with learning differences, regardless of their financial capacity, from early childhood through to adulthood. LDS’ programs and resources are making meaningful differences in the lives of the individuals and families it serves, and are ultimately helping to foster greater equity and inclusion in society at large.”
