Fundraisers

Survivors of sexual and gender-based violence in our community desperately need support services. Your fundraising efforts will help Amelia Rising ensure that every survivor who comes through our doors or calls our Centre has the ability to receive the counselling, education, outreach, and advocacy support they need. Fundraising is a great way to help support our centre while engaging the community. It is a good way to support survivors like yourself, friends, or family in the Nipissing area. Advocacy can be an important part of healing as well as building a culture of consent and making social change

To conduct a fundraiser, we ask that you please read the Amelia Rising Third Party Fundraising Guide and submit the Amelia Rising Third Party Fundraiser Application Form to [email protected] to get approval for the fundraiser.

Approval is based on the type, theme, and financial viability of the fundraiser. Amelia Rising reserves the right to withhold the use of our organization’s name and logo from any fundraiser, initiative, or promotion if we determine it is inappropriate or does not match the mission, vision, and values of our centre.

#ITriForAmelia

Organized by Chelsea LeBlanc

Why Chelsea fundraises for Amelia Rising:

“This is the third annual #ITriForAmelia where I will swim, cycle and run about 40km to complete the North Bay Triathlon Route. As a trauma survivor, I want to bring awareness to this organization in hopes that someone who is a victim of abuse can find solace in the people and the programs offered by Amelia Rising and be on their way to survivorship. We need to stand together as community and help those struggling to rise from the ashes. Your donations will help those in need today. ”

The ITriForAmelia fundraiser was a success this year as Chelsea not only completed the Triathlon but raised way past her goal of $800 to $1437!!

The Amelia Rising team is so grateful to Chelsea and all she has done for our centre the past three years!
