Sidoo Family Giving Supports World Vision Project RUDI 

About us

We are here to increase your knowledge with experience

David Sidoo was raised in a family of simple origins in New Westminster, BC and attended New Westminster Secondary School. During those formative years, David Sidoo was introduced to football, which gave him a sense of validation and focus. David Sidoo earned a scholarship to play football at UBC in 1978, where he became a highly decorated Thunderbird. In the summers David Sidoo worked two jobs to help support his family.

Following university, David Sidoo went on to be the first Indo Canadian to play in the Canadian Football League—five years with the Saskatchewan Roughriders and one year with the BC Lions. When he retired from football in 1988, David Sidoo went on to a very successful career in business in which he has built several companies.

At the core, Oasis Café is intended to be a haven for people to find refreshment and renewal. Sidoo Family Giving is proud to support Oasis at Tenth Church.
