$260,000 Raised - Volunteers needed for our upcoming virtual Ask Event!
On October 23rd, 2024, Inclusion Canada hosted our fundraising event, Hope. This event helped secure funds to support individuals and families. We are thrilled to share that it was a resounding success!
Over 200 people registered, raising an incredible $260,000. Sincere thank you to our master of ceremonies, Jack Carr, and also to Jason Green for leading our ask. At our event, Inclusion Canada’s CEO, Krista Carr, shared powerful reflections from the inclusion movement, highlighting both the challenges and triumphs we face, along with an overview of our current priorities. Guests were also moved by the inspiring stories of Jane, Nathan, Roy, and Cathy.
The success of this event was made possible by the generosity of donors and volunteers, such as:
-
$2,500 from Standen Abraham Advisory Group at Scotia Wealth Management,
-
$2,500 from The Azrieli Foundation,
-
$1,000 each from Durham Association for Family Resource & Support and BDO
-
$25,000 from a generous family foundation, and
-
$15,000 from Sephora.
-
17 Inclusion Champions renewed or made new commitments.
Thank you all!
The event's impact will be felt across communities nationwide. We want to thank all our donors and our volunteers, including the 14 individuals who invited friends, family, and colleagues to join the event virtually. Special appreciation to three volunteers who hosted an in person 'Watch Party' in Lloydminster, SK bringing people together in their community to experience the event.
While this event was a tremendous success, we continue to have areas in urgent need of funding. To continue our critical work, we’re hosting a second fundraising event on May 14th. This event will help us as we continue to fight disability poverty, support families, tackle isolation, create inclusive employment, address ableism, transform healthcare, and protect lives.
The success of our next event depends on you! Your involvement could be key to shaping the next success story. Please consider volunteering for this short-term, high-impact role.
