Local family supports Kids Academy ELC with $150,000 Donation

KINDERSLEY — Gary and Tammy Becker of Longhorn Oil & Gas Ltd. have made a generous donation of $150,000 to the Kids Academy Early Learning Centre (ELC) project, earning naming rights for one of the centre’s toddler rooms.

The contribution comes at a crucial time for the project, allowing the fundraising committee to move forward and stay on track for a planned Fall 2026 opening.

“We cannot thank Gary and Tammy enough for their generosity and commitment to our project,” said Monique Neigum, fundraising committee member. “When you think of local community support, you think of Gary and Tammy with Longhorn, and we’re extremely grateful for their endorsement. The support from our community has been nothing short of outstanding.”

The Kids Academy ELC project aims to provide modern, welcoming spaces for early childhood learning and care in the Kindersley area. The support from local families and businesses has been instrumental in bringing the project closer to completion.
