Make a Donation
Community Living Hamilton is supported with federal, provincial, City of Hamilton and United Way Halton & Hamilton donations. But our resources are never enough for the needs of our community.
Your donation can help us improve service capacity, availability, and choice, while also enabling us to bring new services on stream. Your contribution may help someone with a developmental disability find work, learn a skill, participate in their community, make a friend… it may also help a family access a fun weekend for their child with special needs, or go on a social outing with peers.
We welcome your donations here.
