The War Amps

The War Amps is a Canadian nation-wide registered charitable organization operated under the direction of war amputees. In 1946, the Key Tag Service was launched as a sheltered workshop where war amputees could not only work for competitive wages, but also provide a service to Canadians that would generate funds for the organization. The Address Label Service was introduced in 1972 to provide year-round employment for the disabled staff at the Key Tag Service. The War Amps is able to operate its many programs, such as the CHAMP (Child Amputee) Program, PLAYSAFE and DRIVESAFE, solely through donations from the public to the Key Tag and Address Label Service. The War Amps does not: use professional fundraisers; receive government grants; solicit by phone or door-to-door; sell or trade your name/address; spend more than 10% on administration; tie up funds in long-term investments.

BROWN BAGGING FOR CALGARY'S KIDS

BB4CK works in partnership with Calgary schools to make and deliver free healthy lunches for students who would otherwise go hungry. Through the work of community groups and volunteers, we provide about 2,000 lunches each day. Lunches are prepared in our main kitchen, and in various other locations by community groups including retirees, parent groups and local businesses. Nourishment is available to any young person who arrives at school without enough to eat. BB4CK works with school staff members to identify needs and to plan how best to make sure hungry students get the nutrition required to think clearly and learn. By enabling better education outcomes, BB4CK gives students a hand up, not just a handout. Each lunch costs only about $1 to make. Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids has one goal: no hungry kids in Calgary. We strive toward this goal each day by providing healthy lunches directly to kids, and by empowering communities to create lasting social change.

WOMEN'S CRISIS SERVICES OF WATERLOO REGION - ANSELMA HOUSE & HAVEN HOUSE

We operate two shelters; Anselma House in Kitchener and Haven House in Cambridge, plus regional Outreach services and a regional 24/7 Crisis Line, for abused women and their children. With your generous donation, you will help provide a safe place free from abuse for women and their children and ensure that they have the necessary tools to allow them to move forward in a life free of violence. Women’s Crisis Services relies on community support in order to offset our funding shortage between the number of beds for which we are funded and the number of women and children we actually serve. This community support enables us not to turn women and children away who need to find refuge. We thank our supporters for enabling us to help the families we serve to move beyond violence. Making a donation will help abused women and their children find safety and support as they begin moving beyond violence.
