PARTNERSHIPS
Partner with us to keep Halton families supported.
Businesses, schools, faith communities, service clubs, funders and community groups help us bring food, clothing and everyday essentials to neighbours across Halton. A team from SignAgent, for example, sorted about 15,000 pounds of food in a single 90-minute volunteer session.
Great partnerships start with a conversation. Tell us what your organization can offer, who you would like to involve and when you hope to begin, and we will help you shape a first step that fits what neighbours need now.
WAYS TO PARTNER
Choose a contribution that fits your organization.
Choose the path closest to what your organization can offer, then tell us about it in the form below. We will help you shape the idea and plan the details together.
Financial support
One-time, monthly and matching gifts help us respond as needs change, and grants strengthen the staff and systems behind every visit.
Tell us about itGoods and services
Donate food, hygiene items or household essentials, or offer transport, storage, printing, technology or professional skills. Talk with us first so your contribution lands where it helps most.
Tell us about itEmployee engagement
Bring colleagues together for a food drive, a workplace campaign, matching gifts or a volunteer day. We will plan the date, tasks and space with you before your team arrives.
Tell us about itCampaign collaboration
Sponsor a campaign, run a fundraiser or match gifts during a season of need. We will agree on the name, timing, message and recognition together.
Tell us about itNot sure where you fit?
Tell us your idea, and we will find the right place for it. If your idea fits more than one path, or none of them, choose Other in the form and we will talk it through.
CHOOSE YOUR ROUTE
Choose what your group can give.
Pick the route that fits your group today. If your plan mixes a few of them, send us a note and we will help connect the pieces.
Pool financial gifts
Invite people to give through our secure CanadaHelps page, make an organizational gift or ask your employer about matching gifts. If your plan includes tickets, meals, prizes or sponsor recognition, please talk with us first, since tax receipts depend on how a gift is structured.
Collect requested items
Build your collection around our Most Needed Items page, then confirm the dates, rough volume and drop-off plan with us. A short, focused list is easier for people to remember and more useful when it arrives.
Volunteer together
Tell us your group's size, ages, availability and any accessibility needs, and we will look for a task, date and space that works. Please reach out early so we can plan well.
Create an ongoing partnership
Funding, goods, professional services, employee involvement or campaign reach can all grow into a lasting partnership. The partnership form at the bottom of this page is the best place to start.
BUILD THE DRIVE
Make it easy to give the right thing.
Pick one or two items to collect. A narrow focus is easier to explain, easier for people to remember and easy to adjust if our needs change while your drive is running.
- 01
Choose one focus
Ask us what is most useful before you announce the drive, and check the Most Needed Items page again before each reminder.
- 02
Set a clear window
Choose a start date, an end date and a collection spot your group can keep an eye on. Name one coordinator people can ask.
- 03
Share one live source
Point people to our Most Needed Items page so they always see this week's list. If you print a short list, add the link and the date you checked it.
- 04
Confirm the handoff
Before your last reminder, let us know roughly how much you expect and when you will deliver. We will plan a drop-off time for larger collections.
LIVE NEEDS
Our needs change week to week.
