Help Cover Overhead
For every $1,000 raised or saved, we can support one more young victim and their family. Operating (or "Overhead") costs are the necessary expenses (for electricity, heat, water, etc.) to run our trauma-informed programs. While we do everything we can to keep our costs low, we require a certain amount of funds to simply operate – like any organization.
Below are some of the resources we rely on to accomplish our mission, and the costs associated with each. We would love for you to partner with us by investing in these as a donor or sponsor. Covering operating costs may not seem glamorous, but they are vital towards the big picture of helping children, youth, and families towards brighter futures!
"To donate or sponsor?" Both are great options! It's really up to you, taking into consideration the benefit of each.
- Donate: Automatically receive an official tax receipt for income tax purposes, but nothing else (i.e.: recognition) per CRA rules.
- Sponsor: Receive recognition for your support (we will connect about what's right for you), but no official tax receipt per CRA rules. You will receive a gift receipt. Possibilities include recognition on our signage, website, social media pages, and/or other ways.
Help local kids and their families by enabling our team to keep our focus on them! You can do so by supporting our overhead costs, as a key partner. If you have any questions, or want to learn more, please contact either contact below:
