Did You Know Your Job Could Help Save Animals?
Many companies in Canada reward their employees and retirees for supporting charities like Lily’s Place Animal Sanctuary — simply by donating, volunteering, or doing both.
If you work (or used to work) at one of the companies listed in this PDF, your everyday actions — like volunteering a few hours or making a small donation — could trigger hundreds or even thousands of dollars in support for the rescued animals at Lily’s Place.
…even if you’re retired!
Here's how it works:
These programs may include:
- Donation matching: Your employer matches your personal donation, often dollar-for-dollar.
- Volunteer grants: Your time is turned into money. For example, if you volunteer 40 hours in a year, the company might donate $500 to Lily’s Place in your name.
- Team volunteer rewards: Some companies give extra grants when multiple employees volunteer together.
- Retiree eligibility: Some companies extend these benefits to retirees — even surviving spouses in some cases.
👉 You don’t need to give more time or money — you just need to unlock what’s already available to you! Learn more in this handy guide.
