GrinVilla is committed to supporting local, national, international, sports teams, schools, charities, churches and other non-profit organizations. Many such organizations use our products and website/network community to help in their fundraising needs - this is a win win for all of us! GrinVilla is proud of the money it donated to local non-profits in our first year and we hope to increase those numbers every year. Our number one priority is the welfare of children in our area and across the globe. We are a child-friendly, family-oriented site and through the sale of our products, we have a long term mission to one day build a home for orphaned children in Africa.
Here are just a few of the organizations we are currently supporting:
Skate Kingsville (GrinVilla donated $420.00 plus Skater of the Month photos in 2006) as well as designing and maintaining their website.
Southpoint Minor Hockey - GrinVilla will be donating all sponsor plaques, coachs' photos and a portion of the photo day sales in 2007.
L.D.S.S. Class of '88 20 Year Reunion
Cottam Soccer (GrinVilla donated $550.00 plus sponsor plaques in 2007)
Plan Canada; GrinVilla sponsors a child from Uganda and supports their Aids/HIV Child program.
Canadian Cancer Society GrinVilla founder, Karen Amlin, has lost many members of her family to cancer at a young age, and has HNPCC which is genetic pre-disposition to cancer; she will support fundraising initiatives locally, nationally and internationally.
GrinVilla's South Africa Home for Children GrinVilla has a big dream to build a loving, nurturing home for orphaned children in South Africa through the sale of AffirMagnets!
