The Kingston Military Family Resource Centre (KMFRC) is calling on the community to take part in Month of the Military Child, a nationwide recognition of the strength, adaptability, and sacrifices of military children. Throughout April, Kingston residents and businesses are encouraged to #TealUp in support of military families and participate in a 50/50 fundraiser launching on March 26 to directly contribute to resources for military children in the local community. 

Why #TealUp? 

Teal is the official colour of Month of the Military Child, representing all branches of the Canadian Armed Forces—blue for the Air Force, green for the Army, and a combination of blue and white for the Navy. By wearing teal and spreading awareness, Kingstonians can demonstrate solidarity and support for the children who experience frequent relocations, extended separations from loved ones, and the ongoing challenge of integrating into new communities. 

50/50 Fundraiser: 

A Chance to Give Back To make an even greater impact, the KMFRC is launching a 50/50 fundraiser on March 26, with proceeds directly supporting military families in Kingston. Every ticket purchased helps enhance activities, services, and resources that empower military children and strengthen their resilience. Tickets are available at: kmfrc.com/win Draw Date: May 

Join the Movement: How Kingston Can Get Involved
•#TealUp: Wear teal throughout April and encourage others to do the same. Tag us.
•Participate in Local Events: Watch for special events in Kingston celebrating military children.
•Witness the Illumination of Kingston City Hall and Springer Square in teal on April 3rd.
•Purchase a 50/50 Ticket: Contribute to essential programs for military children in Kingston.
•Spread Awareness: Share stories and experiences on social media using #MonthOfTheMilitaryChild#TealUp #MilitaryChildStrong.

The Kingston Military Family Resource Centre (KMFRC) is thrilled to announce our Month of the Military Child Online 50/50 Fundraiser – Teal Up!

Get your tickets today and support a cause that directly impacts military families in our community.

"Teal Up for the Month of the Military Child" is a meaningful initiative to honour the unique challenges and sacrifices faced by military children. The colour teal was thoughtfully chosen as it represents all branches of the military: blue for the Air Force, green for the Army, and blue/white for the Navy. By wearing teal and participating in activities throughout the month of April, communities come together to celebrate and fuel the strength, resilience, and adaptability of military children, acknowledging their vital role in the military community.

Since 1994, the KMFRC has been Kingston’s primary resource for addressing the unique needs of Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) families during relocations, absences, and transitions. We take pride in delivering quality activities and services that support the evolving needs of CAF members and their loved ones.

Your participation in this fundraiser will enable us to enhance nationally funded services, provide exceptional child care support in times of need, and remain responsive to critical and urgent matters. With your generosity, we can also remove barriers to accessing key services and foster meaningful opportunities for connection and engagement – because connection is at the heart of building resilient military families.

The lucky winner will be contacted to claim their prize, but every ticket purchased is a win for our community.

Thank you for your invaluable support in helping us make a lasting difference. Together, we’re strengthening the foundation of our military family community!
