GIVING TO COMMUNITY CARE OF WEST NIAGARA
Involving EVERYONE in our Community Involving EVERYONE in our Community
As a CCWN Donor, your contribution will impact
the life of a local family in need. Your generosity
and desire to promote the welfare of others,
allows us to provide emergency hunger relief and
related quality of life programs to over 1000
people a month!
Cause Driven Gifts
Our Mission is “to provide a bridge between
dependency and self sufficiency” for members of
our community who are living in poverty. Your
contribution will directly impact someone's life!
Tribute Gifts
Recognize someone with the best gift possible: a
brighter future for a child. Tribute giving is
thoughtful and lasts a lifetime.
Donate In Honour of Someone
Make any occasion special by donating in honour
of someone extraordinary. This is perfect for any
act of kindness, seasonal celebration, a birthday,
anniversary or graduation.
Donate In Memory of Someone
Celebrate and remember a loved one, friend or
colleague who has passed by making a special
donation in their memory. Your gift is a wonderful
way to leave a legacy in their name and will help
in our community .
Community Led Events
Since its inception in 1967, CCWN has been the
grateful recipient of proceeds generated by
passionate community members just like you!
Every year individuals who believe in our cause
initiate over 200 fund raising or food raising
events to benefit those we serve. This is an easy
and rewarding way to create awareness and
mobilize West Niagara residents to invest in the
positive transformation of a family’s future.
Legacy Gifts
Your legacy gift safeguards that your hope
prevails for our most vulnerable. Whether you
find CCWN’s emergency hunger relief or quality of
life programs compelling, a planned gift through
legacy giving may be one of the easiest and most
fulfilling gifts ever made.

process of making a securities transfer to CCWN,

Did you know?
A charitable donation is one of the best ways for
you to reduce personal income tax.
A charitable tax receipt will be issued for donations
over $10.
A donation of $1,000 to CCWN would reduce your
tax or increase your refund by $361.
The refund generated on the first $200 of
donations would be at 20% however once your
total donations to all charities exceeds $200 then
the refund percentage becomes 40%.
The Donation Credit is a non-refundable tax credit
which means that you have to be paying tax in a
year for the refund to be generated.
