2025-26 Turtle Island Retail Sales Donation
Our Leadership team, our Board of Directors and our school community, extend our sincere gratitude to the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation (EOCF) for their donation from the 2025-26 season of Turtle Island retail sales merchandise to us from their Ice District Authentics sales channels. With these donated funds, we can pay four months of utilities required to operate our senior high school at 11205 101 Street, in Edmonton!
This donation will allow ICYDA to continue to provide marginalized Indigenous and other urban youth with wrap-around social services and educational programming in a comfortable, accessible, and stable environment.
We are very proud of our long history as a beneficiary of the EOCF, a relationship that extends back more than twenty years. Our thanks to EOCF and your Board for your continued support of our programming.
Sincerely,
Joe Cloutier
Director of Education and Chief Operating Officer

2020
This holiday season Priority Mechanical, The Chan family, W. Brett Wilson, and Mary Robbins made our Christmas extra special by contributing to our operations in this difficult time.
From breakfast and lunch, to counselling and cultural supports, these donations provided hope to youth looking to improve their lives. These gifts will provide life-changing support and education to Edmonton’s marginalized urban Indigenous and other youth through our unique wrap-around programming. These gifts, like all those we received in 2020, have helped open the doors for youth who were looking to take a step towards a better future. We want to extend our sincere thanks for these contributions and thank all all who donated and supported us this past year.
We wish you peace, health and fortitude in 2021.
