Uncles & Aunts at Large

Purpose:

Established in 1967, Uncles & Aunts at Large was among the earliest agencies in the Edmonton area to organize mentor services for children. Through Uncles & Aunts at Large, volunteers offer companionship, mentoring and friendly support to children ages 6 to 18 from single-parent families.

Root & Role: 

Uncles & Aunts at Large operates only in Edmonton & the surrounding area communities, so the focus is on the changing needs of single-parent familes in this region. The agency was established by local Canadian Progress Clubs (CPC) over 50 years ago. CPC members & other generous donations continue to support the Agency faithfully.
