A Dollar A Day Donor Impact Report | October 2019

Friends, We're excited to continue our journey to put more money on the front lines of mental health and addictions across Canada. September has been another great month for A Dollar A Day, and we have some exciting things ahead! A unique fundraiser called Kitchens 4 Missions will be taking place in St. John's, NL in support of our foundation on October 19th. We are also travelling to RSA's head office in Toronto to launch an exciting employee engagement competition. Tim Hortons Smile Cookie week in Brandon, Manitoba was a record breaking success and we loved seeing local organizations sharing their smile cookie selfies. If you have not contributed yet, you can be a part of this movement for improved mental health and addictions care! Please consider becoming a Dollar-A-Dayer- together we can make a difference!

Our Corporate Partners Working to Share the Change for Mental Health Our corporate partners understand that mental health and addictions impact their employees, their families and their communities. Their support provides operational funds that help us move closer to our 100% goal - that is, to have 100 cents of every dollar donated by individual Dollar-A-Dayers going to frontline mental health and addictions programs, where it is needed most! This Wednesday, October 9th, A Dollar A Day will be visiting the head office at RSA in Toronto to announce an exciting employee engagement initiative. RSA and Johnson are launching a Team Competition to raise funds in support of A Dollar A Day Foundation nation wide. Stay tuned to our social channels for information on progress as the competition unfolds.
