Great Canadian Giving Challenge: Donate to a local charity and enter for them to win cash
LETHBRIDGE, AB – Every registered charity in Canada is part of this year’s Great Canadian Giving Challenge.
VP of Partnerships with CanadaHelps Lys Hugessen explains how their unique fundraiser works.
“If you make a donation to any Canadian Charity, every dollar that you donate is a ballot for that charity to win the prize of $20,000. Canada Helps, this year, is celebrating our 20th anniversary and we’ve raised the prize to $20,000.”
The idea is that, even if your local charity of choice does not win the cash prize, they do win in a way because people will have been encouraged to make donations to them.
