Giving Tuesday

Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. It was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. We are proud to be participating in this global day of giving!

This year, our goal is to fundraise $20,000 to help fund the Carte Proximité project.

Carte Proximité is a card that supports people who do not have economic access to sufficient nutritious produce and is used as a method of payment to purchase food items at any of the participating markets, including ours. In 2024, we distributed 47 cards to individuals and families, over a period of 4 months, worth a total of $18 500. Since we had a growing waiting list during our 2024 market season of deserving people who wished to obtain one of these cards, our goal for this year's Giving Tuesday campaign is to increase the quantity of cards that we will distribute during our 2025 market season.

How to give to our campaign:

To obtain our goal, we are counting on your support! Here are examples of how donating to this year’s campaign will be helping fellow West Islanders:

  • A donation of $25 allows a household of 3 people to purchase produce at our markets for one week.

  • A donation of $50 allows one person to purchase produce at our markets for one month.

  • A donation of $125 allows a family of 4 to purchase produce at our markets for one month.

Every little bit helps!

Please consider making a donation. Thank you!
