Why Join?

Easter Seals operates solely on donations and sponsorships from the people and communities around the province. We receive no government funding therefore our donors are of utmost importance to our success and to the success of the people we support: kids with physical disabilities.

Where your donation will go

Your donation can be designated to one of three areas:

  1. Financial Assistance Program
    Supporting the purchase of expensive mobility, communications and accessibility equipment customized for children and youth with physical disabilities.
  2. Send a Kid to Camp Program
    Supporting the expense of sending children with physical disabilities to an amazing, fully accessible, overnight summer camp (10 day sessions) where they meet lifelong friends and try activities they never thought possible.
  3. Area of Greatest Need

The cost of a helping hand

Easter Seals Ontario provides funding to families of kids with physical disabilities for costly equipment such as wheelchairs, walkers, braces and communication devices.  As children grow, most equipment must be replaced. It can cost families an additional $10,000 to $40,000 a year to raise a child with a physical disability and many families just can’t do it on their own.

Generous dollars contributed by Easter Seals’ supporters help children with physical disabilities get the essential equipment they need to achieve a greater level of independence.

Here are some examples of the costs incurred by Easter Seals’ families in order to allow children with physical disabilities to have more mobility and live safely within their own homes:

Power Wheelchair$10,000-$32,000
Battery for Power Wheelchair$300*
Manual Wheelchair$,2000-$5,000
Bath Lift$2,300-$4,000*
Home RampUp to $25,000
Porch Lift$4,500-$7,000
Van Lift$3,000-$35,000
Shower/Commode Chair$1,500-$5,000
Specialized Car Seat$950-$1,500*
Leg Splints$1,200-$3,900
Walker$400-$5,000
10 Days at Easter Seals Camp$2,500*

*No government assistance available.
