Directed Donations

Directed Donations

The Max Keeping Foundation stages several events throughout the year to raise the critical funds necessary to help meet the growing community need.  Donations from individuals are also helpful and greatly appreciated.

 


  • Make a Donation to the Max Keeping Foundation

  • One in five children in eastern Ontario and western Quebec live in poverty, and in some neighbourhoods, one in three. Poverty creates barriers that can deprive a child of the opportunity to shine and thrive. With your generous donation you will help support the Max Keeping Foundation in removing these barriers.

  • Help a Child Through Hockey

  • Every child deserves the chance to participate in organized sports. Engaging in structured group activities gives young people an opportunity to increase their physical activity while also developing their physical and social skills. As Canada’s most popular sport amongst children, hockey is played across the country, but not all families can enrol their children due to registration and equipment costs.

  • Send a Child to Soccer

  • Encouraging self-worth and self-esteem in children is essential to shaping their futures. When children feel their life has value and meaning, it is much easier for them to correct or change habits that may put that valued life at risk.
    Soccer has one of the largest and most loyal followings internationally to-date. With your donation, you can help a child register with a local soccer team and inspire positive attitudes and overall healthy life-styles.

Becoming a skilled dancer requires practice, discipline and focus – skills that can be applied to all areas of a child’s life.Your donation will help send a child to dance class where they can foster a positive attitude by exploring their own self-expression.
