We rely on the generosity of donors to provide a safe place for people living on the street or in single-room occupancy hotels. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us serve those in the Downtown Eastside. We are pleased to issue tax receipts on all donations over $20.
OTHER WAYS TO DONATE
-
BUSINESS AND CORPORATE DONATIONS
Many companies and their employees want to ‘give back’ and it makes good business sense to support their community. Supported by their employer, groups of employees can come together to donate their time and money to team building causes. The Dugout can help.
-
SMALL GROUP FUNDRAISING
The Dugout has many small groups who come together to fund meals, clothing and blanket drives or other necessities for the centre. Church groups, book clubs or just friends can have fun while doing something worthwhile for those people in the DTES living rough.
