Become a Monthly Donor

RCD’s Monthly Giving is a convenient and easy way to support our vital programs and services all year round! It is an especially effective method of giving as it allows RCD to plan for the future. You will receive one tax receipt each year, which reduces administration costs – more of your gift will directly help the people we support through our programs.

 

We appreciate contributions of any amount and thank all donors for their support. You can set up your monthly giving online or by calling 604.232.2404.

Make a Gift in Honour/Memory

A gift to the Richmond Centre for Disability in the name of a loved one is a wonderful way to honour someone you love, while also supporting RCD to deliver quality programs and services to the individuals we serve, and to their families. It is ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, or to pay tribute to someone who has passed away.

Once a gift in honour has been received, RCD will send you an acknowledgment letter and a charitable tax receipt. A personalized letter will also be sent to the individual being honoured or their next of kin, notifying them of your gift. (Please ensure you include name and address for notification purposes).

Host an Event

A great way to support RCD is to host a fundraising event with friends, family or co-workers. All types of activities – sporting events, golf tournaments, dinner parties, office holiday celebrations – can become successful fundraising events that directly benefit the individuals with disabilities supported by RCD, and their families.

To ensure that your event supports the brand and mandate of RCD, a Special Event Request Form describing the intended act and purpose of the event should be submitted at least one month prior to commencement of the activity. This form also provides an opportunity for you to indicate the types of support RCD can offer to help make your event a success.

If you have any questions about hosting a fundraising event, please contact Nancy Pagani, Executive Director, at 604.232.2404 or nancy@rcdrichmond.org
