Ways To Help

There are many ways to help and support Lola’s Roundtable.

The best way is by donations!

Lola’s Roundtable is a not-for-profit organization currently in the process of applying for Charitable Status with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). Until this application is approved – a process that can take over a year and often involves an initial denial – we are unable to provide tax receipts for donations.

In the meantime, we have developed Sponsor Packages as an incentive to support our mission. Donations play a critical role in the growth and sustainability of Lola’s programs, helping us expand our offerings and better serve individuals with disabilities in our community. Your support makes a difference!

Donations are imperative to Lola’s growth and sustainability for the programs we intend to offer.

Some important things that Lola’s needs help to attain with donations are:

Expanding Our Reach with New Locations

Our goal is to establish additional locations to provide greater support and accessibility across different areas. These new spaces would serve as central hubs for weekday respite and as meeting spots for programs like our summer youth initiative. Each location would be designed to foster skill development and independence, offering opportunities for participants to engage in activities such as cooking, cleaning, and laundry while building confidence and essential life skills. Expanding our locations will help us better serve families and individuals in need, creating more opportunities for growth and connection within the community.

Lunch Program

Lola’s Roundtable offers a lunch program that provides our members with the opportunity to gain valuable life skills, including meal planning, shopping for ingredients, and preparing and cooking meals. The cost of groceries can add up quickly, and donations are essential to help us cover these expenses. Your support ensures that we can continue offering this hands-on learning experience, empowering our members to develop important skills for independence while enjoying nutritious meals.

Vehicles

Multiple vehicles (vans) will be required to run our programs as we continue to grow in group sizes. We will require vehicles for our pick up and drop off services as well as community activities. We also hope one day we will be able to provide an accessible van to accommodate different support requirements.

Activity Programs

Lola’s Roundtable offers an activity program that allows us to cover the cost of all activities for our participants. This ensures that members, who often receive limited funding each year, can fully engage in our programs without financial barriers. By covering activity costs, we enable our members to use their funding for other essential opportunities. However, to keep this program running, we rely on donations from our community. Your support helps us continue providing these enriching experiences and ensuring accessibility for all.

Competent and Trained Staff

Staff is what keeps Lola’s running and growing, without staff we would not be able to provide the programs offered to our members.

Innovative Housing

Over the next 10 years Lola’s will be working on ideas and ways to implement affordable and innovative living options for our members as well as members of our community. This will be our most costly service and our biggest goal to achieve.
