Donate


Every donation helps. CFUW provides scholarships to young women from the Orillia school attendance area who are graduating from a publicly funded secondary school, the Learning Centre and Mature students.

Monthly Donations


Make smaller, more manageable reoccurring gifts, which have a huge impact over time.

Legacy Giving


Leaving a legacy gift in your Will is a meaningful way to support young students to achieve their goals.

Securities


With a donation of securities or mutual funds, capital gains tax does not apply, allowing you to give more and avoid paying these taxes.
