Why is Monthly Giving Beneficial?

As a monthly donor you get to make smaller, more manageable reoccurring gifts, which have a huge impact over time.

Monthly giving is convenient. Once set up, monthly credit card payments will continue until you decide to upgrade or downgrade your donation. You can choose a level of donation that makes sense for you. Our online donation platform, CanadaHelps automatically sends you one tax receipt at the end of the year for your monthly donations.

Benefit for Huron Shores Hospice Your monthly gift will allow us to count on regular dollars coming in, making it easier for us to plan programs, create budgets and expand our services. If the last year has taught us anything, it is that we need to diversify our income stream. We learned not to rely so heavily on fundraisers, because well – a pandemic can happen and your fundraising events may all have to change dynamically. Having a steady, predictable source of income through monthly giving will put us on solid ground to sustain the hospice suites and services. We will have more time to spend on person-centred care for our residents and their families when we can avoid the peaks and valleys of revenue.

Different levels of giving offered in our donation form

We can make sure we are creating moments that matter for our residents with your monthly gift. Here is how your dollars could help: $15 buys meals for a day for a family member staying with their loved one. $20 Restocks the Kitchenette in the suites with snacks, tea and coffee for each new resident and their family. ​ $50 buys one full day of care in each year. You can pick a significant day for you – birthday, anniversary or special day in memory of a loved one. We will dedicate that day of care to you or your loved one by posting a notice on the hospice suite door. ‘This day of excellent care is dedicated to (your name or your loved one’s name.) We thank (name) for their wonderful support of our community hospice.’ Or you can pick a monthly gift that makes sense to you and your budget!
