Frequently Asked Questions
Donors
How do the bursaries work?
An applicant will apply on line by sharing their stories as to why they want to apply to the foundation. This could be anything. Such as ballet lessons, guitar lessons, a paid tutor, mental wellness; the list goes on. Once the applicant is accepted it will be peer to peer. Meaning if an applicant wants the foundation to fund a bike the applicant will get a bike. There will be no cash given. It will be exactly what the applicant wants or needs. Providing help provides empowerment and engagement for our youth.
How can I submit a donation?
You can submit a donation by donating online by PayPal. All major credit cards are accepted. See the Donate page for more.
Do I get a receipt for my donation?
Yes, you will receive a receipt from the foundation via email.
​
Are there limits to how much I can donate?
There are no limits to your donation. Every dollar counts. That’s the bottom line.
What percentage of the donation goes to the bursary?
There is a cost that PayPal receives from each donation. That is 2.9% of the total donation. The rest goes into the foundation.
