  • Donate—tax receipts provided

    Join the national movement to help people struggling with mental health issues. As a donor, you will receive an annualized tax receipt via email following the end of the calendar year.

  • Corporate Partnerships

    The Kelty Foundation’s partnership with quintessential health bodies across Canada has granted the organization wide-spanning reach. We will implement a customized strategy that complements your company while enhancing your reputation in the community.

  • Hold your own event

    Organize an event in support of The Kelty Foundation to change the tide for those living with mental illness. Engage your network and use what you're passionate about to fuel the movement.

  • Donate goods or services

    In-kind donations are an impactful addition to our fundraising efforts. Giving a product or lending your skills offer tangible support for our various fundraising initiatives and events.

  • Gift of Securities

    When you donate securities directly to a charity, there is no capital gains tax—which means more money for the charity and a bigger tax receipt for you. The Kelty Foundation accepts gifts of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds.
