    Creative Kids┃The Start of the Story w/ Rose Gilks and David Millar

    Today, we’re starting a new series sharing stories from the Creative Kids Saskatchewan charity. Creative Kids came to be when Dr. David Millar, a Regina-based chiropractor and engaged community volunteer, brought up the idea to his friend Rose Gilks, the then-CEO of SaskCulture. Fifteen years later, we're sitting down with Dave and Rose to ask: what happened in 2010 that started this story? To learn more about Creative Kids and support our work, go to creativekidssask.ca or find us on social media @CreativeKidsSask.
