Founded in 2009, the Unlocking Potential (UP) Foundation raises funds and awareness for the programs offered by Kindred Connections Society (Kindred). Kindred, formerly know as Catholic Family Service (CFS), has served vulnerable populations in the Calgary area for over 65 years. UP believes that the family is the single most important influence in a child's development. UP works to ensure the sustainability of innovative programs that build strong families and have a positive impact on future generations.
