Sponsors and Partners

The Kids Eat Smart Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador is a provincial organization that ensures that children attend school well-nourished and ready to learn. Its breakfast clubs across the province are supported by more than 4,000 volunteers.

Sponsorship as a Way to Give Back
Kids Eat Smart is only one of the causes Applecore Interactive has actively supported over the past decade. "Sponsorship is one of the most rewarding promotional partnerships any business can experience," says C.O.O. Wilma Hartmann. "It is a way to give back to a community and to make a difference to those causes that are important to us."

Being a Part of Successful Growth
In the early 2000's Applecore worked with the Kids Eat Smart Foundation in its rebranding which now flourishes in the hands of the organization's own staff. Watching the organization grow and support more than 200 breakfast clubs today is great reward to any sponsor and partner.

Camaraderie Amongst Sponsors
The Foundation keenly recognizes the value of its sponsors and partners - something every business looks for when it chooses to partner. The camaraderie amongst Kids Eat Smart donors bridges the divide between business rivals - recognition of a great cause taps into the very best in corporate spirit. Says Wilma, "It has been a privilege to rub shoulders with the some of the region's greatest corporations in unified support of a great cause."

Our Other Partnerships
Applecore's current sponsorships also includes the 2010 Juno Awards Ruckus on the Edge, the Health Care Foundation, Prof. TA Loeffler's 2010 Everest expedition and the Applecore Women's Hockey team (whose favourite place is the top of the women's recreational league!)
