The Essentials Fund raises funds to support charities and raise awareness that charities need a flexible, unrestricted grant to support client access to essentials. The Essentials Fund helps to meet the needs of the charities when and where it is needed most.
About The Essentials Fund
Launched in 2022 by a group of community volunteers, The Essentials Fund (TEF) has raised over $180,000 and provided unrestricted grants to Waterloo Region (WR) nonprofits the last four years of fundraising/granting! TEF’s goal is two-fold – to raise much needed funds to support WR non-profits and to raise awareness that orgs need this support in the form of a flexible, unrestricted grant to be used for their clients’ essential needs which could include basic toiletries (shampoo, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste), bus tickets for appts., backpacks for possessions, seasonal clothing/footwear, infant needs (diapers, formula, clothing) and menstrual products to name a few items.
Thank you so much for supporting TEF! For further information, please visit www.essentialsfundwr.ca or contact Jane Arnold/Allyson Kroetsch at [email protected] .
