Our Mission

Zebra Crossings' mission is to enrich the lives of children with a chronic health condition, including those at risk of developing a chronic health condition by fostering greater self-confidence, a sense of independence and a desire to realize their full potential through fun and engaging enrichment programs that build a strong and caring community support network for families.

• Approach life with greater confidence.
• Experience a sense of optimism and preparedness.
• Take responsibility for their own health and make healthy choices.
• Pro-actively seek opportunities to achieve their goals.
• Feel supported by a community network of peers.
