Leading Edge & Edmonton Gives 2025

Leading Edge Physiotherapy Launches Holiday Donation Drive for Kids Kottage

This season, Leading Edge Physiotherapy is stepping up in a big way for Edmonton’s most vulnerable children. Their clinics across the Edmonton area have chosen Kids Kottage as the beneficiary of their annual holiday donation drive.

From now until December 19, all Edmonton Leading Edge clinics will be collecting new kids’ clothing, diapers, toys, and essential items to directly support the babies and toddlers cared for at Kids Kottage.

Why It Matters

Kids Kottage provides 24/7 crisis prevention and safe shelter for infants and young children whose families are experiencing overwhelming situations. When families are struggling, something as simple as diapers, a warm sleeper, or a comforting toy can make an immediate difference.

Leading Edge Physiotherapy believes that healing happens beyond the clinic walls, and this donation drive is one more way they’re showing up for the community that helped shape them.

Where to Donate

Drop-off bins are available at all Leading Edge Physiotherapy Edmonton-area clinics until December 19th.

Whether it’s a package of diapers or a cozy sleeper, every single donation goes directly toward helping a child feel safe, warm, and cared for during a difficult time.
