Financial Support

Prairie Pregnancy Support Centre depends on the generous support of individuals, families, churches and corporations in order to run our programs.

Our mission is to care for those in Central Plains facing unplanned pregnancy – this could be your daughter. Or maybe your niece. Maybe the young girl who works at your favorite restaurant. We want to be there for these women and those around her who are impacted, to provide a safe place for them as they face one of the most difficult decisions of their lives. We can only do that through the practical support of partners like you.

Your generous donations help serve the community through our programs for clients in Central Plains. 100% of our annual revenue comes from private donations. All donations are gratefully received, and any donation over $10 will receive a tax receipt.

You can help and serve Central Plains and the surrounding area by donating today. 
We can accept eTransfer to mary@prairiepregnancy.ca (please place your mailing address in the memo if you would like a tax receipt issued to you), Paypal, or Canada Helps (Just a little note on the differences - eTransfer does not cost us anything to receive your donation, PayPal gives you the option to cover the processing costs, and Canada Helps charges us a fee to accept your gift). You can also send a cheque, drop off cash or contact us directly if you’d like to set up a monthly donation with no processing fees.

New and Used items for babies and moms

We want every woman to have the opportunity to keep her child. Some choose otherwise because they lack the resources to care for a pregnancy and/or newborn. Your gifts of new and used maternity and baby items make a difference.

Layette bundle for Each newborn

Providing for a baby can be overwhelming, especially an unexpected pregnancy. We love to provide new moms with a special gift for their newborn in the form of a layette containing a variety of new baby items and clothes. Find a list of the items here.

"JUST BECAUSE" LOVE bags for each Mom

We also want our clients who are expecting to know they are very loved. Pregnancy is exhausting and emotional, and for some of these women, they have little to no support. We would love to be able to lavish on each of them a “Just Because” love bag.

creative ways you can give

• Gather together friends, family, small group or church and throw a baby shower for layette items. We'd love to join you and share about the work here. Get in touch with us if this is something you would be interested in.

• In lieu of birthday gifts ask for financial donations, layette or “just because” items.

• Use the points from your air miles/credit cards to purchase items or gift cards.

• Go on a special shopping trip with friends to buy sweet little baby things.

• For those who have faced great loss, consider donating a special package in honor of your loved one. “Just because” to honor your mom on Mother’s Day or her birthday, or a layette to acknowledge the loss of a child. We would love if you would include a special note to share with the woman who receives your heartfelt gift.

• You can also give financially, and we can pick up the needed items (please send a note with your donation, so we can designate it for these items).

• Let us know of any creative ideas that you might have!

Pray

This ministry began out of prayer 8 years before the doors officially opened. We realize the only way to continue to provide the love, support and direction needed is with a foundation of prayer. Let us know if you would like to be a part of the prayer team, and you are always welcome to join us the first Wednesday of each month for prayer.
