Blue North
123 Woolwich Street N1H 3V1 Guelph, ON, Canada

With many people weighing in on the messaging that we deliver our donors, it is important to have a framework determined that centres around the donor experience. We like to use the "Think, Feel, Do" framework as a starting point.

Happy "end of year-end" to all fundraisers out there. Take a moment today and reflect on all the good you've done in the world this year. We sure do appreciate it!

Year End is in full swing, and fundraisers are working hard. But we hope you have time to spread good cheer in your offices as well. Here's our account manager Devin Bonner, beginning to see visions of sugar plums dancing in his head as he judges cookie #38 at the @Bethany cookie competition yesterday!

It looks like just a pile of clothes, but... Every holiday season, Blue North chooses a cause to support. This year, we are collecting clothing for the Anishinaabe community of Asubpeeschoseewagong/Grassy Narrows First Nation. It’s north of Kenora, near the Manitoba border. The community of about 1500 people has, for many years, been deeply affected by toxic mercury leaks into its river system and illegal logging on its lands. The nearest town is two hours away and temperatures are regularly -40. Here's hoping that you and yours are enjoying warmth and comfort this season.
