The Flin Flon Taekwondo Academy held their 3rd annual "Kicks for Kids" Fundraiser on May 20 in the Flin Flon Dojang. The Denare Beach club will hold their Kick-A-Thon on June 17. Kicks for Kids is a fundraiser for KidSport, a program created to help overcome social and economic obstacles that prevent young people from participating in organized sport. A portion of the proceeds from the Kicks for Kids donations is allocated to the athlete assistance program in each region. This fund allows qualified children to access grant money to put towards sport registration fees. Through the efforts of each individual member in the form of collecting pledges for Kicks for Kids, kids are helping kids as well as promoting the martial art of Taekwondo. Master and Mrs. Jedele were very generous and donated two months of free classes to the member who raised the most money. All who participated from our local club put forth their best effort to collect a lot of pledges for this cause and fun was had by all as they kicked through the evening.
