Girls Intro To Soccer

We are excited to launch our #GirlGoals – Intro to Soccer program, for girls 5-9 years old.

Our program will provide quality sport programming for communities who are often underserved and overlooked when it comes to sport opportunities. Our program seeks to provide a welcoming space for diverse girls to explore the game of soccer, build their confidence and gain sustainable physical literacy skills.

We are happy to be a part of the ParticipACTION Community Challenge and we are thankful to the Government of Canada for their support.

Location: Vaughan Sportsplex

Coldest Night of the Year – Richmond Hill

Coldest Night of the Year is a fun, family-friendly fundraising walk inviting Canadians to step outside the warmth and comfort of their home to shine a light of welcome, compassion, and inclusion in their communities.

As Blue Door’s only annual fundraiser, Coldest Night of the Year – Richmond Hill is an imperative event as it allows Blue Door programs to continue to provide life-saving supports and services to our community’s most vulnerable. Funds raised support urgent needs and Blue Door’s Mosaic Interfaith Out of the Cold program, providing services to youth, adults, seniors, and families experiencing homelessness and poverty in York Region.
