Ways To Give

How you can join us in making a positive community impact 

At the CNE Foundation, we are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of individuals and the community through our community and youth programs. These initiatives are made possible through the generous support of the CNE community, and people like you. There are a number of ways that you can help and that suit a variety of individual and group giving goals.

Financial Gift 
We are grateful for one-time, monthly, or annual monetary gifts from
individuals and corporations. You can choose to support general
Foundation activities or direct your gift to a specific program. You can
donate online or you can send a cheque by mail.
Donations of $20 or more are eligible for a charitable tax receipt.
50/50 Raffle Ticket Purchase
The CNE Foundation hosts electronic 50/50 raffle fundraisers during the
annual CNE and throughout the year. Your 50/50 ticket purchase helps
support our community and youth programs, including community grants, scholarships, and youth sports and arts programs.
Matching Gift 
Individuals and corporations can amplify the support of the CNE
community through matching partnerships. Through this initiative, you
can match gifts made by individuals, up to the set amount.
In-Kind Donation 
If you or your organization are able to contribute in-kind products or
services in support of a CNE Foundation program or event, we’d love to
hear from you.
Gift In Memory or In Honour 
For many of us, the CNE is a cherished family tradition. You can make a
financial gift to the CNE Foundation in memory of a loved one, in honour of someone special, or to mark an occasion or milestone.
Workplace or Group Fundraising 
Corporate and social groups are able to fundraise on behalf of the CNE
Foundation. Through our online system, we are able to set up a unique
landing page to help get word out at your workplace or among your group,
and process online donations.
Planned Giving 
With your planned gift – such as a bequest in your will or other deferred
gift such as life insurance or securities – you can support CNE
Foundation programs into the future and benefit from tax savings.
Endowment Fund 
An endowment fund with the CNE Foundation allows you to establish a
permanent fund in your name or in honour of a loved one. The income from
your fund is directed as per your wishes in support of a CNE Foundation
program.

Together, we can make a positive impact in the community. Please contact us with any questions about giving to the CNE Foundation or to discuss how the CNE Foundation could become part of your personal or organizational charitable giving planning.
