Help Canadians Celebrate Father’s Day with Charitable Gifts

Posted on

This Sunday, help Canadians celebrate Father’s Day with charitable gifts. Many large charities benefit by offering charitable gifts – think of campaigns to provide a goat to a family, or a scholarship to a child, especially during special occasions like Father’s Day and Mother’s Day. The CanadaHelps Gift Guide is a no-charge way for charities of all types and sizes to attract new donors with charitable gifts.

People have already begun browsing the CanadaHelps Gift Guide for Father’s Day gifts – add yours today.

What kinds of gifts work?

Donors are increasingly motivated to give when they know the tangible impact of their donation. Charitable gift ideas can be anything from physical items such as warm blankets, school supplies, or first-aid kits, to outcomes of donations such as the gift of a lifesaving medical treatment for a child in need.

You can add gifts that are specifically for this special occasion but we suggest adding gifts that work all year round! We’ll promote your charitable gifts throughout the year.
