GIVEOakville Live Brings More Than 70 Local Charities to Appleby College
More than 70 Oakville charities will be in one place at Appleby College on Sunday afternoon, and anyone can walk in and talk to them. GIVEOakville Live runs from 1 to 3 p.m. on November 15 at the college, 540 Lakeshore Road West, and it is free to attend.
The afternoon is the public face of GIVEOakville, the annual giving campaign run by the Oakville Community Foundation. The campaign launches today and runs until December 7. The Foundation covers all transaction fees while it is on, so the full amount of a donation reaches the charity it was meant for.
It is set up for wandering rather than sitting through a program. The Foundation describes it as the best chance to hear what the participating charities are working on right now, and to meet other people who give locally.
There is a free ticket page for anyone who would rather sort that out ahead of Sunday.
If you go
Sunday, November 15, 1 to 3 p.m. at Appleby College, 540 Lakeshore Road West. Drop in any time inside those hours, and admission is free.
Sunday is the start of the campaign rather than the last call. Donations through GIVEOakville stay open until December 7.
