There are many ways to contribute to REACH. We are a registered charity, so if you make a cash donation, you will receive a tax receipt for the full amount of your donation. You can also make an "in-kind" donation, which is a donation of goods. If you make an in-kind donation, you will receive a tax receipt for the fair market value of the goods you donate. Our Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) charity number is 10691 4757 RR0001. Check us out in the charity section of CRA's website at http://cra-arc.gc.ca.
One way you can support REACH's many programs in the future is to include us in your Will. Be sure to speak with your lawyer and/or financial advisor about including REACH as part of your planned giving. As always, please feel welcome to contact us about the many ways you can support our programs and our agency.

Opportunities for Students |
|
We encourage students to get involved in their community and also here at REACH. Students have often helped at REACH by filling temporary positions, assisting with program administration, helping out at summer programs, assisting with agency administration, etc. Students often have a unique perspective in how programs can be delivered and how clients can obtain maximum benefits from our programs.
REACH is currently seeking volunteer student assistance in the following areas:
→ Early Years Centre
→ Administration
REACH also offers placement opportunities for students who require a practicum experience to achieve their diploma or degree. We offer placement opportunities for Developmental Services Worker, Child and Youth Worker, Social Services Worker, Early Childhood Education and Social Work students. Please contact our
