Hello!
The Maplewave Charity Committee is asking if you’ll join us in helping Adsum for Women & Children in January and February 2022.
About Adsum
Adsum supports and advocates for women, families, youth, and gender-diverse persons who experience poverty and homelessness. They focus on providing shelter and other supportive programs and services.
Adsum operates four locations throughout the Halifax Regional Municipality. They provide emergency shelter (Adsum House), as well as long-term affordable housing in Halifax and Dartmouth with onsite supports (Adsum Court and The Alders). Adsum also owns a few condominiums in Clayton Park that are rented to single mothers and their families.
This Year’s Fundraiser
In past years, Maplewave held a toy drive in support of Adsum. This year, we thought we'd try something new and ask supporters to purchase items from Adsum’s wish list in January and February. This list contains items that are in high demand by their clients. This means your contribution will provide benefits all year round.
Our fundraising campaign runs from January 10th to February 28th. We are asking those who can afford it to help up by purchasing an item or items from Adsum's wish list. From hygiene kits to activity packs, there are many options at different price points and every donation matters.
Maplewave will generously match any donations we get (up to $2500).
Please help us by purchasing something from the wish list below and by sharing with your friends and family too!
With deep appreciation,
The Maplewave Charity Committee
Every Donation is delivered directly to Adsum for Women & Children clients
Adsum shelters and houses as many as 120 people each day and more than 300 persons in a year. Hundreds more women and families work with our Housing Support team to help find and keep stable housing and be supported on their journey to rebuild their lives from crisis to stability. Help Adsum for Women & Children provide basic needs to people in your community so "Everyone has a safe and stable home".
This campaign is designed to provide charities across Canada with the items they need to help them create impact for their causes and their communities. All product prices include shipping and applicable taxes. Once a donation is made for a specific item the Unity Values Foundation will work with Kits for a Cause and their procurement partners to ship the item directly to charity noted above. Tax receipts will be provided by the Unity Values Foundation. NOTE recipients must be registered Canadian charities. If your chosen charity cannot be reached we will send your item to a similar charity located near the region your charity operates.
Payments and Receipts are processed by the Unity Values Foundation. The Unity Values Foundation does not take a percentage of the donation, all funds donated are used for procurement of the donated item. Cash donations will be subject to a standard 2.9% credit card processing fee by the credit card processor and will be sent to your selected charity.
