The Nathan O'Brien Children's Foundation was established to provide a helping hand to disadvantaged children. Our privately funded foundation supports children's charities through grants in honor of our son Nathan Kenneth O'Brien.

Our foundation is committed to honouring the memory of Nathan O'Brien and his legacy of compassion and kindness by helping improve the lives of children giving them the opportunity to live, hope and pursue their dreams.

As parents, it is important that Nathan's spirit lives on and continues to inspire good deeds in the world. The Nathan O'Brien Children's Foundation is honored to work with other dedicated charities to be part of a community that wants to make a positive difference in the world. Together we honour Nathan while benefiting Calgary’s children's charities.

Past projects have included, building an indoor playground, annual sporting events and food drives.
