Donor Initiatives (we want to hear from you!)
PPFA is giving you the chance to make your voice heard. Tell us where you think your community needs some help, we look to you, our donors, to provide us with ideas and suggestions about worthy causes and we’ll take your suggestion(s) into consideration when allocating our funds.
Whether buying toys for children or non-perishable foods for community centres, donating to AIDS or cancer research, or buying a textbook for a deserving student – as long as it involves giving back to the community, PPFA is here to help. Our goal is holistic, emphasizing the importance and ease of giving as a way to build up healthy and caring communities.
