we are better together...

Making an impact can look different from person to person. Some may desire to be hands-on through volunteering, while others mobilize and facilitate this work through financial partnerships, advocacy and prayer. We believe that each element is as important as the next, and marvel at the beautiful things that can be accomplished collectively. We are simply betTer together and could not do this work without you!

GIFT IN-KIND DONATIONS

We have many tangible needs for in-kind gifts (contribution of goods) such as baby/maternity items, hygiene products, food, toys, furniture and more! Please contact our office if you have an interest in helping us with these needs. Tax receipts may be provided in many cases.

Legacy GIVING

What will your legacy be? We invite you to make Options’ legacy of care and hope part of yours by leaving a bequest to Montreal Youth Unlimited’s “OPTIONS” in your will. You are truly an integral part of achieving our mission. Your generosity makes a difference that impacts generations.

3rd party fundraisers

Is fundraising your love language? We are thrilled to be chosen as the recipient for your generous “DIY” fundraiser, as the needs are great! Click below to learn about the parameters for such campaigns for non-profit organizations as well as guidelines you get started.

CORPORATE SPONSORSHIPS

We have a number of opportunities to take on corporate sponsorship, with or without public recognition. Be it through sponsorship of a support room in our Centre or of a residential room at our transitional house, the purchase of a gala package or a monthly contribution from your business charity, your brand may be visible and recognized as being a backer of these important resources.

school partnerships

Are you in need of in-school support? We are thrilled to work alongside you or to develop materials in tandem to equip, encourage and empower youth as they grow in health and well-being. Our BLOOM programs focus on early empowerment, growing up and sexual health. Options is ready to facilitate workshops, classes and events as well as to receive your students in-house for our own events.

community partnerships

Options believes in working alongside and in conjunction with community organizations and resources which provide care to those experiencing an unintended pregnancy, young parenthood and beyond. We know that we can not do this work alone, nor do we strive to. We believe in pointing our clients to the best possible supports offered by organizations specializing in those areas. Social workers, health co-operatives, daycares and more…

PRAYER

We believe in the power of prayer. We invite you to be praying for our team, those we work with, our finances, reach and impact. Knowing that you are taking time to care for us in this way, is deeply touching.

ADVOCACY

Spread the word! Letting others know about Options on social media, through Google reviews, or by letting a business know that they should consider partnering with us are all excellent ways to help us reach more people in need of support. We also need reps for our yearly ILLUMINATION campaign. You can even contact us to arrange a guest speaker from Options to share more about what we do with your organization, church or event!

SPONSOR A FAMILY IN NEED

We offer a discrete way to care for a single mom or young family in need on a deeper level through Christmas sponsorships. After a screening process is completed, a match is made and a list of both needs and wants are provided to you. This is an excellent way to “give back” during the holidays amongst a group of friends, workplace or as a family in hopes of teaching generosity.
