After growing up in poverty and isolation, country super star Shania Twain created Shania Kids Can to address the needs of young school children in times of crises and economic hardship. As a child, Shania faced economic and social barriers that affected her academic performance and overall school experience.
SKC provides children with one-on-one consultations, academic support, group activities as well as nutritious snacks and meal programs where needed, all while in the safe, confidence-building environment that is the Shania Kids Can Clubhouse. These children are learning the skills to cope with and overcome family hardships which, in turn improves their ability to succeed in school.
