The people at the Royal Canadian Mint care about the communities they live and work in. We take pride in ensuring that our Sponsorship and Corporate Donations Programs align with our corporate values and commitments, while supporting the communities we serve.
The Mint has a long tradition of contributions to a variety of causes. In 2006-2007, we decided to focus our charitable donations on a smaller number of organizations to maximize our positive impact on the community.
When discussing how we can help, it soon became clear that nutrition programs for children and support for Canada's wildlife and nature were top priorities.
As a result, we proudly selected the Canadian Wildlife Federation and the Breakfast for Learning program as the two principal beneficiaries of the Royal Canadian Mint's charitable donations program for 2007.
Breakfast for Learning is the only national, non-profit organization solely dedicated to supporting child nutrition programs in Canada. Breakfast for Learning's Nutrition Program Grants provide funds directly to eligible Canadian schools and community-based groups who wish to establish or enhance breakfast, snack or lunch programs for children and youth. To date, more than 203 million nutritious meals have been provided to Canadian children. For more information, visit: www.breakfastforlearning.ca
The Canadian Wildlife Federation advocates the protection of Canada's wild species, and is Canada's largest non-profit, non-governmental conservation organization. The CWF is dedicated to fostering awareness of the natural world. Since 1962, CWF has advocated the protection of Canada's wild species and spaces. For more information, visit the CWF website: www.cwf-fcf.org
The Mint also supports other government departments in fundraising initiatives benefiting large and small charities across Canada. Now an annual tradition, Mint employees demonstrate their commitment to various organizations and charities by supporting the Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign (GCWCC). The GCWCC is one of the largest and most successful workplace fundraising campaigns in Canada, supporting causes associated with the United Way/Centraide.
