Ways to Give: Find the Right Fit for You
Your generosity has the power to transform lives. At Effect Hope, we’re committed to full transparency—so you can give in the best way for you, knowing exactly how your support makes a difference. Whether it’s a one-time donation, a monthly commitment, or a creative gift like Aeroplan points, every contribution fuels hope and healing for those affected by neglected tropical diseases.
Here’s a closer look at the different ways you can give, along with the benefits and considerations of each.
1. Donate Online
Giving online at effecthope.org/donate is fast, easy, and secure. Your gift will start making an impact right away. Note: a small portion of your donation (around 6% in total) goes to Fundraise Up and payment processing fees.
2. Browse Our Online Gift Catalogue
If you want your gift to feel more personal or symbolic, explore our Gift Catalogue. Choose items like medicine kits or health worker training to honour someone special while supporting vital programs.
3. Donate Your Unused Aeroplan Points ✈️
We’re thrilled to launch our newest giving option: Donating Aeroplan Points. Your unused points can now be turned into real-world impact, helping to fund essential travel for healthcare workers and life-saving medicine deliveries. While you won’t receive a tax receipt, this is a powerful, no-cost way to transform unused points into life-changing impact.
4. Call Us Directly
Sometimes it’s nice to speak to a real person. Our friendly team is here Monday through Friday to walk you through the giving process, answer your questions, or take your donation over the phone. Just give us a call at 1-888-537-7679. This option does depend on our weekday office hours.
*Personal support—only available during business hours.
5. Send an E-Transfer
Want to avoid processing fees altogether? Sending an e-transfer to giving@effecthope.org is a secure and cost-effective way to donate. There’s no security question needed, and we receive 100% of your gift (no fees!). Just note that tax receipts are processed manually, so there may be a slight delay.
6. Send a Wire Transfer
For those making a larger gift or donating from abroad, a wire transfer is a secure option. Simply reach out to us to request our banking information, and we’ll walk you through the steps. Depending on your bank, a fee might apply on your end.
7. Become a Monthly Donor Through the Hope Collective
By joining our monthly donor community, you become part of a reliable support system that provides ongoing care to those in need. Monthly donations help us plan and deliver consistent services year-round. It’s an incredible way to deepen your impact—set it up once, and know that every month, you’re helping change lives in a meaningful and lasting way.
8. Mail In a Cheque
Prefer the classic approach? Mailing a cheque to 101-20 Valleywood Dr Markham, ON L3R 6G1, Canada is a traditional and personal way to give. While it avoids digital fees, it does require more administrative time and can be delayed by postal disruptions.
9. Leave a Legacy Gift
Planning a future gift to Effect Hope is a powerful way to show your belief in our mission. By including Effect Hope in your Will or other planned giving methods, you’re creating a legacy with a lasting impact. These gifts are simple to set up with the guidance of your financial or legal advisor – and we’re here to support you throughout the process..
10. Other Ways to Give
Beyond traditional donations, there are several thoughtful ways to support our mission. You can donate valuable assets to potentially reduce your tax burden, or even send in used postage stamps to help fund care for people affected by neglected tropical diseases. A charitable gift annuity offers you guaranteed lifetime income while supporting our work. You can also leave a legacy through a life insurance policy or make a tax-smart gift by donating your RRSP or RRIF. Each option helps bring lasting hope and healing.
Every Gift Counts
No matter how you choose to give, you are changing lives. From urgent needs today to long-term solutions tomorrow, your generosity fuels hope, health, and healing.
Don’t wait. Give now. Maximize your impact.
