The Sir Winston Churchill Society of Edmonton
The Sir Winston Churchill Society of Edmonton isn't just about the things Winston Churchill did in the past. It's about his convictions, his wit, his power to inspire and how those qualities are necessary for our community today. With Churchill as an example, we want to inspire leaders, young and old, as we rise to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

Our society has funded four JA programs for $5,000, impacting 100 students in Edmonton’s inner city that have demonstrated a high need for services. They include St. Alphonsus Elementary/Junior High, Spruce Avenue Junior High, John A. McDougall Elementary, and Delton Elementary. (Photo provided by JA.)
