LET’S BUILD THE NEW WEST

We’re raising funds to build the next generation of School Streets in Calgary—because the new frontier isn’t out on the range. It’s right here in our neighbourhoods.

With your support, we turned a bold student idea into the Connaught Open Street—a safer, more playful space outside Connaught School that’s now permanent. That alone was a huge win. Now, with a community vision in hand, we’re working on redeveloping it into a high quality park designed with people - not just cars - in mind. 

“I feel like I made a difference, and I feel powerful to make change in our community.”

- Grade 4 student, Connaught School 


We’ve got funding for two more School Streets, but it only covers the basics.

To go further—to support communities, engage students, evaluate impact, and push for permanent change—we need your help.

Your donation helps us:

• Empower kids to redesign streets around their schools

• Support community partners and local design teams

• Share what works and advocate for city-wide change
