The Justin Storgaard Foundation Fund was set up to enrich Ottawa’s community in Justin’s memory following his passing at the tender age of eight.

His passion for dance and entertainment helped him cope with the physical challenges due to his cancer. A leg brace, a wheelchair and even a hospital bed did not stop Justin from entertaining family and friends nor from grooving to the tunes of the Backstreet Boys and Riverdance. He once advised a friend to: ‘take care of every moment, every moment’. He himself lived by that principle every day of his short life.

He would have been happy to know that donors to his fund are inspiring the lives of disabled children who also love dancing and expressing their joy.

Donations to the fund help make it more accessible for children with disabilities to participate in inclusive and integrative dance programs so that they too can more easily enjoy every moment of their lives.
