Get started as a corporate donor
Everyone in Ontario has the opportunity to support the arrival of newcomers to their community. The Newcomer Donation Network is a centralized tool connecting public donors and community agencies with offers of assistance.
Your donation will go directly to a newcomer family in Ontario, often in your community. Agencies in your community will connect their clients with items you have offered. Your donation will stay in your community. The Newcomer Donation Network is funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). This means 100% of the donation goes directly to newcomers in need.
