“Would you like to make a donation to Scouts Canada?” This question would be said and heard in our neighbourhood, and neighbourhoods across the city, every year around this time for Apple Day. Like last year, Apple Day is a bit different this time around as we will not be out and about this Fall, but we hope you “would like to make a donation to Scouts Canada” and help our group raise funds so that we can have some great adventures! Last year we had the help of CanadaHelps to orgnaize donations and secure tax reciepts for those who required them. This year we are doing things a bit differently. If you would like to donate, please fill out the online form using the link below or reach out to one of our Volunteers directly. We will then make arrangements with you on the best method to collect the donation, be it e-transfer or a pick up. Online donation form - https://forms.gle/JAVm6v1F1F7yv1Sj6 We will be accepting donation for Apple Day until 11:59pm on October 30th. We thanks in advance for the support and generosity and we are very hopeful for a normal Apple Day in 2022!!! We are again participating in a Scouts Canada's annual fundraiser Scout Popcorn!
