In Ontario, government funding sustains child, youth, and family welfare services like ours, but it doesn’t cover everything. As a charity, we bridge the gap by raising funds to enhance the lives of vulnerable children, youth, and families in our community.
Your contributions provide basics like diapers and school supplies, alongside enriching experiences such as summer camp and tutoring. These offerings restore dignity, foster belonging, and open doors to a more secure future.
Explore ways to make a difference below, and for inquiries about giving, you can contact us at 705-817-1140 or communications@familyconnexions.ca. Together, let’s empower futures and create lasting change in our community.

Setting up an automatic monthly donation is an easy and cost-effective way to support children, youth, and families in our community. It is also the best way to maximize your impact, as it empowers us to plan ahead for our programs and services with confidence.
Your single, impactful contribution enables us to address urgent needs, launch innovative programs, and respond swiftly to the evolving challenges faced by children, youth, and families in our community. You can make a powerful statement today with a one-time gift.
Both monthly donations and one-time donations can also be given as a gift in honour or memory of someone special to you. This is a unique way to celebrate, remember, or express your admiration, all while making a profound impact on the lives of children, youth, and families in need. Just be sure to check off that you “would like to dedicate this donation”, and include the contact information for the person who should be notified of the gift.
Transform your investments into a force for good! By donating securities and mutual funds, you are unlocking a powerful avenue of support for children, youth, and families in need.
