Giving Tuesday 2025

Because of the generosity of neighbours, families, and local partners, we raised $13,885 through our Giving Tuesday efforts – an incredible expression of care for our community.

We’re especially grateful to James Bay Veterinary Clinic, our Community Match Partner, whose $500 matching gift helped spur early giving and set such a positive tone for the day.

Support from friends and neighbours – people just like you – have also helped propel our Fall Campaign forward in ways we hadn’t anticipated. As of today, we have raised $54,515 toward our $50,000 goal, a milestone made possible by so many people giving what they can to keep this neighbourhood connected and supported.

These gifts directly strengthen programs that matter every day – from seniors receiving friendly calls, to families finding community in our Family Centre, to neighbours navigating services with dignity and support.

Thank you for showing up for James Bay in such a meaningful way.

Your generosity brings warmth and stability to so many, and we are deeply grateful.

Earlier this year, we received a generous $5,000 community challenge gift that helped kick-start our 50th Anniversary year. On Giving Tuesday, your support will build on that momentum and strengthen key programs for seniors, families, and neighbours right here in James Bay.

We’re excited to share that James Bay Veterinary Clinic has kindly joined our Giving Tuesday efforts as our our Community Match Partner, matching the first $500 donated that day.

Their support helps double the impact of early gifts — and we’re grateful for neighbourhood partners stepping forward to lift this community.

Your Giving Tuesday donation supports everyday moments of connection that mean the world to the people we serve:

• A senior receiving a friendly call so they don’t go days without hearing their name.

• Families finding connection and breathing space at our Family Resource Centre.

• A neighbour receiving help navigating services.

These small moments are the heart of our work — and the reason your support matters so much.

How to Get Involved on December 2nd

Donate on Giving Tuesday to help unlock a matching gift from James Bay Veterinary Clinic, doubling early donations up to a total of $500 and building toward our larger 50th Anniversary goal.

On this global day of generosity, your support helps ensure that neighbours in James Bay feel seen, supported, and connected.

With gratitude,
