| For the past 97 years, Easter Seals has played an important role in providing support for children and youth with physical disabilities. Thanks to our generous donors, we continue to offer programs that allow kids to experience freedom, independence and a sense of accomplishment. For families, Easter Seals is somewhere to turn for help when they need it.
Easter Seals is a registered charitable organization that helps children and youth with physical disabilities from all ethnic and religious backgrounds. We assist families with the purchase of essential mobility and accessibility equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, porch lifts and ramps, toileting aids and bathing equipment. Easter Seals also helps by providing summer camp opportunities at our two fully accessible properties, Camp Merrywood, near Perth, Ont. and Camp Woodeden, in London, Ont. In addition, Easter Seals offers post-secondary scholarships and provides access to information and resources, and public education and awareness.

| The Newmarket Lions Club is a registered charity and has been serving the needs of the Newmarket community for the past 80 years. Being a registered charity, we can issue a tax receipt for all donations. Our largest community programme is the Newmarket Lions Santa Fund. Since the 1930's we have ensured that Newmarket families who can not afford the added expenses at Christmas time are able to provide a Christmas meal for their family, This done by providing a gift certificate which can be used at a local grocery store. Tobacco and lottery tickets can not be purchased. One way companies can help their community is to donate to the Santa Claus Fund. Some companies make a donation or hold a fund raising event such as a barbeque for its employees or collect money for "dress down Friday". An income tax receipt can be issued. We look forward to hearing about your ideas and working with you to make this years Santa Fund successful.

| Founded in 2018, NACCA first began as an idea that Black and oppressed communities must have access to resources and opportunities for advancement. On May 5, 2018, a group of community members came together to discuss how we could build a more diverse and connected Newmarket community. One pivotal point in the discussion was around a concern for youth and how the organization could support a generational legacy of education, empowerment, and unity that will foster pride in identity, culture and history for the people of African descent. We understood that there was a need for rootedness and belonging and a firm understanding of the past so that we could step boldly into the future. We concluded that our growth and sustainability meant building strength, partnerships and intercultural understanding.
NACCA has built incredible programs and a community supporting Black families, youth and businesses In Newmarket. Since 2018, NACCA has provided 10 scholarships for Black students pursuing post secondary studies. We would love for our community to come together so we can support even more Black excellence for our youth and students through scholarships and programs. Given the challenges we have all experienced with the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with the increased trauma of anti-Black racism, we need to support our youth even more.
With the help from our community we will be able to support even more students with future scholarships and develop a framework for increased wellness programs to deliver during the 2023-2024 school year and beyond. Please join us in celebrating Black excellence and building strong communities. You can donate to our scholarship fund and other programs here. Since NACCA is a registered charity, your donation may be tax deductible and a receipt will be given. | Member Since: 2021
