Edmonton's 2nd Annual Superhero Walk/Run Was Great!

Thank You Edmonton!

We wanted to say a super big thank you to runners, walkers, school staff, board members, volunteers and sponsors for making our 2nd Annual Superhero Run/Walk such a success.  It was a good thing we started early, as it was the hottest day of the year — but what a better way to spend time than outside with friends and supporters in Emily Murphy Park.

Christmas Lunch with The Oilers

On December 5th, 2014, we celebrated Christmas lunch with the Edmonton Oilers.

Each year the Oiler's host a holiday event with the team in support of Inner City. This year the students had a chance to go to Rexall Place by bus where they watched a practice and then had lunch with the team at the arena. There was great food, autographs, and an opportunity to mingle with players, management and foundation board members. Inner City would like to say a sincere thank the Oilers and The Oiler's Community Foundation for coordinating the lunch and their ongoing support of our programming!

A Big Thanks to Some of Our Sponsors!

The Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation is a major sponsor of Inner City High School and has been for nearly a decade now. In 2010 the Foundation purchased a building to house the School. They contracted Dialog Architects and Ledcor Construction to renovate it from top to bottom and lease it to us at a subsidized rate. The foundation also provides generous support for other areas of our programming. On December 5th, the Oilers Community Foundation coordinated a Christmas lunch with the Oilers and students at Rexall Place. See pictures here. 

We appreciate their ongoing support for Edmonton’s high risk youth as they work to create a more hopeful and productive future.

Thank you to EPCOR Community Essentials Program. EPCOR helped us serve Inner City High School students with nutritious meals every day for 2 years. That level of support helps us provide Edmonton’s high risk youth with the resources they need to complete school. The next year EPCOR Community Essentials Program contributed financially to our Youth Support Program.  We appreciate EPCOR’s investment in our community.
