Make It Monthly Terms and Conditions

*Make It Monthly 2024 is a bonus donation program where CanadaHelps will donate to a participating charity an additional $20 for each new monthly donation of $20 or more and CanadaHelps will donate an additional $10 for existing monthly donations that are increased by $10 or more beginning March 1st, 2024 at 12:01 AM Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) to March 31st, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST) to a maximum aggregate amount of donations from CanadaHelps to all participating charities of $50,000 CAD. 

In order for a donation to be eligible (each an “Eligible Donation”),: (a) the first monthly donation pursuant to the newly scheduled monthly donation must be processed no later than April 1st, 2024 (b) the increase to an existing monthly donation must be processed no later than April 1st, (c) the scheduled monthly donation must be made via CanadaHelps.org or UniteforChange.com and monthly donations to charities via CanadaHelps’ Peer-to-Peer Fundraising tool or Custom Donation Forms on charity partner websites.

If the total dollars contributed to the Make It Monthly campaign during 2024 falls short of the campaign target, CanadaHelps will match as many of the available eligible donations as possible, and reserve the remainder of the funding for matching campaigns in subsequent years, or apply them to other campaigns this year. During such campaigns, CanadaHelps will post new terms under which the match will be implemented. If the total dollars raised from the Make It Monthly campaign during 2024 exceeds the total available, CanadaHelps will choose eligible donations to be matched through a random process by April 15, 2024, until the total available match amount ($50,000 CAD) is exhausted.

A donation will not be an Eligible Donation if the donation is made by any donor who had an active monthly donation that existed prior to February 29, 2024 and creates a new monthly donation for the same charity in March 2024. A donation will not be an Eligible Donation if the donation is made by any donor who has previously scheduled an Eligible Donation to the same charity as part of a separate series of monthly donations to that charity. Donations are not Eligible Donations if they are made at charity events, gifts processed using the CanadaHelps DMS, API donations, donations of securities, donations made directly to CanadaHelps, and the purchase and redemption of Charity Gift Cards.
