The holiday season is the most critical fundraising period for charities, with many relying on year-end donations to sustain their work. However, the recent Canada Post strike has caused delays, hampering nonprofits’ ability to collect vital funds. While postal services are resuming, the impact will continue into 2025.
This disruption comes at a tough time. Rising inflation, labour shortages, and increasing costs have already put pressure on nonprofits, making it harder to deliver critical services to communities in need.
What’s the solution?
Imagine Canada is calling on the Federal government to extend the deadline for eligible charitable donations into early 2025. This would allow donations received after the postal delays to still qualify for a 2024 tax receipt—a simple step to help charities recover.
