Saint John Story Series is a place to profile and highlight City of Saint John staff, service areas, and the positive impacts of City led initiatives within our community.
Measure of success: P.R.O. Kids marks 20 years and over 20,000 children helped
P.R.O. Kids is marking a major milestone this month as they celebrate 20 years of helping children in greater Saint John.
Since it was first formed, the charitable program, operated by the City of Saint John and led by a dedicated group of 14 volunteer advisory members, has helped more than 20,000 children access sports, recreation, arts and cultural activities.
“A lot of our families are from single-income households and many are newcomers. These are people who may have a more restrictive budget and, unfortunately, just don’t have the means to pay for the fees associated with these activities,” says P.R.O. Kids program manager Lori Lambert
“Our program takes care of that,” adds Lambert. “ Children who have financial barriers that prevent them from attending activities – whether that be hockey, basketball, music lessons, or art lessons – can have the opportunity to play, attend, participate and belong in the same way that other children do.”
P.R.O. Kids will be celebrating its achievements this week at its upcoming annual FUNraising dinner, an event that was put on hold for the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year, the group is looking to raise approximately $30,000 through the dinner, with 100 per cent of the funds going directly to help support children in the community.
“We’ve got some great sponsors that have come on board from the very beginning including U.C.T. Jack Kidd Council 755 and Emera New Brunswick,” says Lambert. “We’re fortunate and we feel very confident that we’re going to exceed our goal and have a great event that will close off a great year for P.R.O. Kids.”
Two community champions who embody the values and mission of P.R.O. Kids will be honoured during this year’s dinner, and they are Chris Green of Top Corner Hockey, and members of the Dickie Crossman Memorial Foundation Committee.
The FUNraising dinner will take place on Thursday, November 17 at the Delta Brunswick Hotel.
Tickets are still available for the event and can be purchased online HERE.
Anyone who cannot attend the event but would like to donate can click HERE.
For those who would like to learn more about criteria and the application process for P.R.O. Kids, click HERE.
Administrative costs for P.R.O. Kids is funded by the City of Saint John, Town of Rothesay, Town of Quispamsis, and the Town of Grand Bay-Westfield. One hundred per cent of funds raised through events, donations, sponsorships and grants go directly to supporting children and youth throughout greater Saint John.

Saint John Common Council is committed to working across governments and sectors to unlock the City and region’s growth potential. To do this, Council has identified eight high-impact priorities that will spur growth by addressing critical infrastructure and building stronger partnerships.
Growth won’t just happen on its own. To be successful we must focus our resources on priorities that align with our growth strategies and will have the greatest potential impact. The priorities also help focus the support of our partners in the federal and provincial governments. We are seeking strategic investments that will help deliver the most benefit.
This new urban school will also be a community hub to support and revitalize the south-central peninsula neighbourhood. The project has been underway since 2019 with significant community involvement. The Government of New Brunswick is the lead on the project and is selecting a site. We are eager to advance to the design and construction stages of the project.
Site preparation has begun for this mixed-used project that will transform Saint John’s urban waterfront and boost tourism. Two thirds of the $27.4 million project, or about $18.4 million, has been funded by the federal and provincial governments, with the remainder funded by the City of Saint John. Continued advocacy and investment by all levels of government is crucial to securing full build out of the project over the next 10 years and unlocking further investments.
A large multi-purpose facility has been prioritized to replace aging arenas (some that are close to 50 years old) and provide modern, functional space for other sports, recreation, and the arts. A more modern facility will not only improve community wellness and service offerings, but it will also boost the attractiveness of our region.
The City is looking to expand lands and investment in its industrial parks to fuel economic growth by attracting new businesses and skilled workers. More lands and investment are needed to ensure the City is positioned to capitalize on emerging growth opportunities in sectors such as green energy, advanced manufacturing and transportation and logistics. These investments will enable these sectors to operate efficiently without adversely impacting the quality of life in residential neighbourhoods.
Saint John has long called on the Province for comprehensive tax reform to ensure more local tax dollars stay in the City to help maintain strong and sustainable municipal services. Currently, the Province collects significant property tax for its own purposes that is disproportionately high when compared to other provinces. In alignment with the Province’s Sustaining Saint John Plan, the time for modernizing our outdated tax system is now.
Currently, more than $36 million in green infrastructure funding is available from the federal government. The City is calling on the Province to unlock these federal funds by providing the required provincial matching funds. These dollars would help make critical investments in climate change-related infrastructure, further enable the creation of a green economy, and support the City’s goal to be carbon neutral by 2040.
About one third of Saint John residents struggle to pay for housing. Affordable housing is important to our residents and key to our community’s success. Our collective ability to provide access to safe, affordable housing will enable us to achieve growth and improve the sense of belonging for those who call Saint John home. The City is looking for federal and provincial support as it embarks on creating and delivering on its Affordable Housing Action Plan.
The City aims to work with post-secondary institutions, other levels of government and the business community to expand programs at UNB Saint John and NBCC to spark growth and innovation across our region. Strong and vibrant educational opportunities are critical to growth, attracting and retaining our youth, and developing a talent and leadership pipeline.

Update (May 1, 2024): Provincial recycling program now in effect for Saint John
The City of Saint John would like to make residents aware of changes to curbside recycling collection services. As part of the Province of New Brunswick’s recently expanded Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program, management of all curbside recycling collection will become the responsibility of a third-party service provider, Miller Waste, beginning May 1.
All recycling collection inquiries should be directed to Miller Waste including replacement totes, schedules and missed collections:
Phone: 1-833-644-1163
Email: nb@millerwaste.ca
The ReCollect app is currently being updated and will still be the best source for determining your pickup day. In the meantime, residents can go to NB Recycling Guide_CitySaintJohn to find your recycling schedule.
A non-profit called Circular Materials (https://www.circularmaterials.ca/) is coordinating this EPR expansion. The recycling collection service provider for Saint John is Miller Waste.
What residents need to know about their curbside recycling collection
The change comes as a result of the Province of New Brunswick’s expansion of the EPR program to paper and packaging under the Designated Materials Regulation and is being implemented in municipalities throughout the province
-----
