Breaking Barriers for Shine Foundation

Donate To This Campaign

Show your support for Q107 Morning Show host Johnny Garbutt as he conquers one of his greatest fears 116 storeys above Toronto at the CN Tower EdgeWalk, in support of Shine Foundation and the young people with severe physical disabilities who break barriers every day.

Every listener who donates over $107 will be entered into a draw to be side by side with Johnny as he breaks his barrier of his fear of heights at the world’s highest full circle hands-free walk.

All funds raised will support Shine Foundation, who for the past 37 years have changed the lives of over 8,900 young people aged 11 - 21 across Canada living with a severe physical disability by providing them with a Shine Dream.

A Shine Dream is a customized experience that helps Dreamers to think differently about their future, gain confidence, and see themselves as someone who can vs. someone who can’t.

Shine Foundation works together with young people to become more engaged in their futures by shining a light on their potential and by creating opportunities for them to make the impact they strive for.

Help support Shine’s goal of being able to change the life of a young person living with severe physical disabilities EVERY SINGLE DAY.
