How to Get Involved

Perhaps involve the company where you work: Our first Mother Parker’s Tea & Coffee corporate contributor writes, “As part of our ongoing efforts to give back to origin, we encourage our customers to participate in the programs that we support. One such customer Southwest Airlines has already decided to support this worthy cause and introduced a new coffee program this year; a portion of the cost of each pound of coffee purchased by them will be donated to Light the Village.”

Or a club you belong to or the church that you attend: Some churches have a “Levite Tithe,” giving 10% of the tithes they receive as a church to those advancing the cause of Christ. Our project may be a way of involving more people in reaching out to the poor in developing nations.

Donations

Our challenge this year is to raise donations of at least $16,500CAD to enable us to send at least 100 systems to Guatemala, and to increase our capacity to provide for the lighting needs of these subsistence farm families in their one-room homes.

Donations can be made online directly through Cause Canada or mailed to Cause Canada, Box 8100, Canmore, Alberta, T1W 2T8. Please be sure to specify "Light the Village" as the project you are giving to.
