Workplace Giving can take various forms but it starts with employees and organizations that want to support and get involved in the communities they live and work in. There are several ways your organization can support Muscular Dystrophy Canada and ultimately the thousands of people impacted by neuromuscular disorders across the country.
Imagine waking up everyone morning knowing it will be another day of facing challenges that most people never think of. This unique event helps people see the world from the eyes of someone who lives in a wheelchair.
All you have to do is register with MDC, ask your friends and family to donate to your fundraising goal and then sit down for a day at the office. Trust us, it will give you a new appreciation for life faced by those with muscular dystrophy.
Not only will you have this new experience, you will raise awareness of disabilities in your workplace and you will help the thousands of Canadians who rely on Muscular Dystrophy Canada for day to day support.
