Kindly check the expiry dates on items you are donating. We follow strict guidelines from the Public Health Department and Food Banks Canada that restrict us from distributing out of date food and damaged packaging. Having to handle and dispose of foods we cannot distribute increases our costs, using funds that could be used to help people accessing our programs.
Charitable tax receipts can be issued when we receive your name, address and original purchase receipts.
DONATION FAQS
Do you accept donations of gently used clothing or household items?
Project SHARE does not have the physical space to accept these items, so we have partnered with St. Andrew’s United Church Shoulder to Shoulder Program and Goodwill Industries Niagara.
Can you accept perishable (fresh/frozen) items?
Yes! We have an industrial sized fridge and freezer onsite to receive a variety of perishable items.
Perishable items like produce, meat and dairy are some of our most requested items.
Can I donate stocks/shares?
Yes! Please reach out to our Fundraising Coordinator at 905-357-5121 ext 248 or fundraising@projectshare.ca
Planned Giving
It’s also important to consider that a charitable gift in your Will can go a long way towards reducing the amount of taxes to be levied against your estate after you pass. You can read about some of the tax advantages of giving through your Will here.
The truth is, you could be using your Will to do a lot more. You can take care of your family while making a big difference in helping your Niagara Falls remain healthy, housed and fed.
We all want to help those around us and leave the world a better place. Leaving a charitable gift in a Will is another way to make your mark.
There are many ways to make a planned gift which can be tailored to your personal and financial circumstances. The most common type of planned gift is a charitable bequest in a person’s will. However, more and more Canadians are realizing the benefits of giving through methods such as gifts of publicly traded stocks and mutual funds. Learn more about planned giving at www.willpower.ca.
