Make Your Gift Go Further

Together, we can lift our region’s most vulnerable people out of the daily struggles that make life challenging. When you become a monthly donor, your gift makes an even bigger impact on our communities.

By donating every month, you can provide year-round support to help:

  • a child receive educational support after school.
  • a senior access nutritional support and a virtual day program that keeps them healthy and socially connected.
  • a person receive dedicated counselling support to help them address their mental health challenges.

Why You’ll Love Monthly Giving

Sustainability – Your monthly gift provides United Way with the reliable funds needed to fuel lasting change in our region. Even better? Monthly donations have lower administrative costs than other fundraising methods, meaning your gift goes further.

Planning Ahead – Setting up a fixed monthly donation makes your long-term planning and budgeting easier. Your gift will be hard at work each and every month, helping to build stronger, healthier, safer communities for all.

Your donation is in good hands

We invest your gift in smart, strategic ways, to ultimately move the needle.

100% Local Impact
Every donation is put to work in the community where it is raised.

Issues You Care About
Poverty. Isolation. Homelessness. Together, we can tackle the issues that seem impossible to solve.

We mobilize the power of our communities to deliver on outcomes that make life measurably better for local people. We make sure at-risk kids are on track to graduate, seniors are less isolated, people with disabilities and newcomers have job skills and employment, people in crisis and with mental health challenges have access to immediate support, youth housing needs are met, and much more.

Have a winter coat, a warm sweater or a pair of boots you no longer need? Put them to good use! 🧥

Next Saturday, November 7, we're inviting the community to come together and donate to Coats for Community... and More!

Drop off new or gently used winter clothing, coats, footwear and seasonal essentials at PATH (385 Lansdowne St E) between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Your donations will help make sure our neighbours have the essentials they need to stay warm this winter.

Take a look through your closets, ask a friend or neighbour to do the same, and bring what you can. Every donation helps, and together, we can make a real difference for people in our community.

Happy Halloween 🎃 from the United Way Peterborough & District team!
We are so happy to be back at our Stewart St. office after a couple of weeks working remotely due to aforementioned “unforeseen circumstances”! Come by and say hello! The team has missed you.
You’re not seeing double, your generosity can go twice as far!

For 85 years, neighbours have been coming together to build a stronger, more caring Peterborough community. This year, there’s an extra reason to celebrate: eligible donations will be matched dollar for dollar!

Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor, new donations of $85 or more, as well as any increase to an existing gift, will be matched 100% through our 2026 Community Campaign.

This is the third and final year of this incredible matching gift, making it a special opportunity to double your impact and help support the network of 20 local agencies working to strengthen our community.

Whether you’re making your first gift or increasing your support, your generosity makes a difference.

85 years united. Double the impact. Stronger together.
