Accountability

The Shine Foundation holds a public trust to fulfill our mission of changing the lives of young people in Canada living with severe physical disabilities. Our Shine program aims to educate and enhance the well-being of communities from coast to coast. 

We are accountable to our Shine young people, and their families, supporters, volunteers, staff, board, and communities across Canada to freely and accurately share information about our governance, finance, and operations. We are open and inclusive in our procedures, processes and programs, consistent with our mission and vision. Click here to view our audited financial statement: 

Shine maintains effective governance and management through our national board of directors who support the effective management and quality use of our resources. We strive to achieve excellence in all aspects of our organization and evaluate on an ongoing basis. 

The Shine Foundation maintains relevance to our mission and society by meeting needs in a changing environment. From Shine recipients to our staff, board, and supporters, we promote inclusiveness and diversity. We are officially recognized as a certified living wage employer with the Ontario Living Wage Network.
