Family Philanthropy – Canuck Place Day of Giving

Posted by Robin Rivers on December 5th, 2007 No Comments Printer-Friendly

I feel bad that I’m posting this so late in the day.

But, if you were looking for a great place to do some serious giving to this holiday season, it most definitely has to be Canuck Place.

The Day of Giving annual Radiothon is today and children from around Canada who are coping with life-threatening illnesses need you to help them make their holiday season – and the rest of the year – memorable and as healthy as possible.

There are so many options, like making a donation for e-cards that you can send throughout the holiday.

You can also buy a radiothon card in honour of a family member as a holiday gift. What a nice way to be philanthropic.

Don’t forget the awesome gear over at the Canuck Place Store.

Canuck Place is one of the most fantastic organizations helping families in the province today, and we are big fans around here.

So, reach out today and lend a hand.

These children and families truly, truly need it.
