CREATING A COMMUNITY OF GIVING - Looking for a donation for your next event, team travel or fundraiser? Don’t Stress… We can help !
Sportwheels has been helping families stay active since 1947. Our mission @ Sportwheels is to increase the participation of children in organized sports. To reach this goal, we give a large portion of our net profits back into the communities of Nova Scotia to help disadvantaged and at risk youth register and participate in recreational sports. We work with non-profit groups such as the IWK, Salvation Army, Schools Plus, Adsum for Women & Children, Family SOS, and many others. These groups along with many coaches and CSO's help us choose families in need of financial assistance.
This Giving Forward model gives youth the opportunity to participate in the sports we all love. Together we are helping over 150 families in need each year. Every purchase at Sportwheels helps contribute to this program by providing equipment and registration for local children in need. To learn more about our mission, please visit Sportwheels.ca/mission. 99% of our donations go towards this program, If you are with a non-profit and your request is in-line with our mission to directly impact a family in need of equipment or registration funds, please visit Givingforward.ca/partners to become an official partner.
In addition, we do have a small budget for youth Team and Organization fundraising events. We believe that business has a responsibility to give back to our community and we are happy to help organizations that have supported us over the years. We do not have the resources to support every worthy cause or organization who applies. However we will do best to review and approve requests that are submitted via our donation format below.
Requirements for Donation Request:
You will need an official donation letter - PDF format. We support team/group events over individual athlete fundraising.
The donation letter must include the name of your non-profit organization, team or club name, where fundraising dollars will be spent. Monetary requests are politely declined.
Email your request to service(@)sportwheels.ca
Please allow 10-14 days for review. If approved we are happy to provide a $20.00 Sportwheels Gift Voucher (Gift Card) for auction or prize giveaways. If approved we will contact you to pick up your donation. Thank you :-)
