Celebrating the 2026 'Children's Champion' Award Recipients: World Floorcoverings Leadership & Staff

Edmonton, AB - March 27, 2026: Kids Kottage Foundation proudly presented the leadership and staff of World Floorcoverings with the 2026 'Children’s Champion Award', honouring their longstanding partnership and commitment to ensuring children are safe and cared for in the community. 

This award, presented at their 4th annual Curling Bonspiel in support of Kids Kottage, honours not only the incredible and ongoing fundraising efforts of the World Floorcoverings team, but also their courage, heart, and tireless commitment to supporting the safety and wellbeing of thousands of infants and children. 

"World Floorcoverings exemplifies what it means to be a true community champion.  Year after year, their support helps families in crisis access safe shelter and stability when it is needed most." - Ashley Brosda (Executive Director; Kids Kottage Foundation).

Over the past four years, the World Floorcoverings annual Charity Curling Bonspiel has raised an incredible $162,064 in support of Kids Kottage Foundation. But beyond the dollars raised, it is this team's genuine care, community spirit, and unwavering support that truly defines their impact. 

Named in honour of Justice Rosanna Saccomani, a founding member of Kids Kottage Foundation - the 'Children's Champion Award' is more than just a recognition of past support. It is a celebration of the power of community leadership to inspire action and create lasting change.  

"Their leadership shows how businesses can play such a meaningful role in strengthening the communities they call home."- Ashley Brosda (Executive Director; Kids Kottage Foundation).

The World Floorcoverings team reminds us that when people step forward to support their community with generosity and purpose, lives can be changed for the better.
