Giving Tuesday & The Season of Inclusion
Your Gift Creates a Community Where Everyone Belongs
At Inclusion Lethbridge, we believe in a world where every person — with and without disabilities — has the opportunity to learn, work, play, and thrive in the community they call home.
This Giving Tuesday and throughout the holiday season, we’re asking our community to come together to support inclusion in action: inclusive education, inclusive sports & recreation, and inclusive employment.
Your donations keep these doors open. Your generosity makes belonging possible.
Inclusive Employment
Meaningful employment gives people purpose, dignity, and independence. Yet many individuals with disabilities still face barriers, bias, and systemic exclusion.
Meet William
William is proud of the work he does and the contributions he makes every day. With the right supports, he found a workplace that sees his value — and a job that lets him grow.
Your donation helps champion inclusive employers, job-seekers, and supports that lead to stable, meaningful, community-based employment.
Inclusive Education
Every student deserves the chance to learn in the classroom alongside their peers, be part of school life, and dream big.
Meet Maggie
Maggie attended the University of Lethbridge — not because inclusion was handed to her, but because she fought for it, and because her community believed in her right to pursue higher education.
Your donation helps students like Maggie know there are opportunities for them to learn in environments where they are welcomed and valued at every educational level.
Inclusive Sports & Recreation
Everyone deserves connection, friendships, and moments of joy. Inclusive sports and recreation open these doors, creating opportunities for physical activity, laughter, and belonging.
Meet Kaleb
When Kaleb joined his inclusive sports program, he didn’t just join a team — he found confidence, community, and a place where his abilities shine.
Your donation helps create accessible programs so youth and adults with disabilities can participate fully — on the field, in the studio, and everywhere fun and friendship happen.
Help Inclusion Lethbridge Build a More Inclusive Future
Why Your Gift Matters

People with disabilities are seen and celebrated
