The Edmonton Riverhawks Community Foundation emerges as a new light in our prairie city, offering hope and purpose to Edmonton’s youth.
We invite youth to play, to try, to fail, to learn and to succeed, knowing the magic resides in the simplest acts of belief. By providing mentorship, resources, and access to sport, the Riverhawks Community Foundation fosters confidence, resilience, and the courage to dream boldly. The leaders born here will know the rhythm of unity, the give-and-take of collaboration, and the vital role of integrity in every choice.
We hear the hum of a collective voice—a symphony of young leaders emerging. They are the grass of Edmonton, growing together, one blade at a time, lifting the community to greater heights. They carry within them the lessons of sport: discipline, empathy, and a sense of purpose.
These leaders will not just make plays on the field; they will craft solutions, build bridges, and inspire action off of it. Through the foundation, the Riverhawks create more than players—they nurture a generation that will sing Edmonton’s song, a melody of unity, compassion, and an unyielding drive to build a better tomorrow.
Riverhawks Community Foundation
The Edmonton Riverhawks Community Foundation inspires and uplifts Edmonton’s youth by fostering access to sports and leadership activities.
Rooted in the belief that “success lies in the effort, not the outcome,” the foundation provides opportunities for young people to build resilience, teamwork, and self-confidence. By reducing barriers to participation, it ensures all youth, regardless of background, can experience the joy and growth sports provide. Beyond physical benefits, the foundation nurtures leadership, mental wellness, discipline, and community connection.
It’s not just about creating athletes; it’s about shaping tomorrow’s leaders with the values of perseverance, fair play, and the spirit of Edmonton.
