We\u2019re excited to announce that for 2024, Simply Voting has made a charity donation of $30,000 to Sun Youth Organization and Le Cha\u00eenon.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our mission is to deliver affordable, trustworthy, and efficient e-democracy solutions to the thousands of organizations we serve. But beyond our role in supporting democratic processes, we also believe in giving back and making a meaningful impact on the world and our local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each year, we invite our team to recommend charitable organizations that are making a positive difference. We then hold a company-wide secret ballot to decide where our support will go, aligning with our commitment to both democracy and community impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re excited to announce that for 2024, Simply Voting has made donations of $15,000 to each of the following organizations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Cha\u00eenon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Le<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1932, Le Cha\u00eenon\u2019s mission is to welcome women in difficulty, unconditionally and without judgment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Cha\u00eenon is a society project. Its vision is based on the fundamental idea of kindness and unconditional acceptance, in the hope of seeing a society develop that is truly in the service of the most disadvantaged communities. It acts as a lasting source of hope, it embodies freedom of action while respecting differences, so that vulnerable people can thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They offer women secure shelter as well as help and support adapted to their needs. With the help of experienced assistants, women who come to Le Cha\u00eenon will take steps towards achieving personal and social independence and autonomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Women benefit from professional support in an environment that encourages the most egalitarian relationships possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le Cha\u00eenon also hopes to take collective and social responsibility to denounce inequality, difficult living conditions and the various forms of violence that women experience in their lives. Its goal is to promote the rights of women \u2013 with women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeunesse au Soleil \/ Sun Youth Organization<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1979, Sun Youth Organization (Sun Youth) provides emergency services and basic needs to people in need in Montreal. Sun Youth also runs crime prevention programs, sports and activities for youth, and a summer camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In F2022, Sun Youth spent $4.7m cash on its programs and distributed $5.6m in donated goods. The charity runs three main programs: Emergency Services, Community Services, and Camp. Sun Youth\u2019s most recent annual report is from F2023. In F2023, Sun Youth helped under 90,000 people (68,000 in F2022) across its programs. Of the people it helped, 32% were men, 33% were women, and 36% were children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 38 years, Sun Youth was based in Montreal\u2019s legendary former Baron Byng High School on Saint-Urbain Street. In November 2018, the Montreal School Board took back its building, which left Sun Youth without a permanent home. Since then, Sun Youth has continued to provide services from temporary facilities while working towards Building a Brighter Future, a plan to build a permanent community hub to offer its services. The federal government committed $10.7m for the new building. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community Services<\/strong> represented 15% ($722k) of program costs in F2023. Sun Youth runs sports and after-school and day camps to help youth develop new talents and socialization skills. In F2023, the charity distributed $89,000 worth of school supplies to 1,144 students. 2,500 children participated in Sun Youth\u2019s activities and leagues. The charity also distributed 100 bikes to 100 youths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
