A Permanent Home for Excel: Why We Need Your Help Now

2/4/2026

 
For over a decade, EXCEL has been a lifeline for Autistic children in the South Okanagan. But today, our mission faces a critical challenge: the building we call home has been sold, and we must secure a new space by July 2026 to ensure our students aren't displaced.

We have found the answer- a 3.37-acre property we’ve named the 'Au-Vengers Campus'. This isn't just a new building; it’s a site designed for safety and growth, featuring expansive outdoor areas for regulated play and outbuildings that can support new programs and partnerships.

The Challenge: To turn this vision into a reality, we need to raise an additional $600,000. These funds will cover our remaining down payment and the necessary renovations to meet fire and building codes so we can open our doors on time.

How You Can Make a Difference:
  • Donate Today: Help us bridge the gap to our $600,000 goal.  https://pentictonexcel.givingfuel.com/wish-we-were-there

  • Partner With Us: We are looking for 'impact-makers' to help us secure this permanent home.

  • Contact Us: For more information on major gift opportunities, please reach out to Carrie Ferguson at [email protected].

The loss of our current space is not theoretical-it is imminent. Help us ensure that no child on our waitlist is left without the support they deserve.
