Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston

Nonprofit

The Marine Museum of the Great Lakes is on a mission to connect the public with the maritime heritage of Kingston and the Great Lakes through programs, exhibits and collections. Our history is intimately entwined with the space we inhabit. The Marine Museum of the Great Lakes is fortunate to be located on a national historic site that forms a considerable part of the Museum’s narrative.  It means that the Museum is able to at once share the story of the maritime heritage of Kingston and the Great Lakes, all the while connecting visitors to a physical piece of that history. Established in 1975 by a group of local divers who sought to protect the artefacts of the shipwrecks they explored, the Museum occupied the Kingston Dry Dock property (formerly the location of the Kingston Shipyards Co.) from 1975-2016. The Museum was forced to vacate the property in 2016 when the federally-owned property was sold to a local developer, and moved to its storefront gallery location at Portsmouth Olympic Harbour where it currently resides. In August 2019, the Marine Museum purchased the historic property following a gift from a local benefactor, and in October 2021 it moved back home. This set in motion an opportunity to makes our plans to create a new 21st century Museum a reality. We invite you to read our vision for the new museum in our new 2020-2025 Strategic Plan, Steering Into the Future.

Nanny Angel Network

Nonprofit

The Nanny Angel Network is a registered charity and the only organization of its kind in Canada. We have been providing free, specialized childcare support and programs to families living with cancer since 2009. Three main goals that drive everything we do: Provide specialized, Child Life-informed childcare support and programs for parents with cancer to give them the time they need to take care of themselves and reduce existing social support burn-out. Build resiliency in children by teaching life-long coping skills. Provide a sense of normalcy for children during a tumultuous time in their lives. Backed by 30 years of nanny agency experience, NAN has continued to successfully provide free resources for cancer patients and their families for over a decade. We support families at any point during the cancer journey. We’re there from the time of diagnosis, during treatment or through palliative care. We continue to support families who need help for up to a year during the bereavement period.
