What are the benefits to joining the Circle of Champions?
There are many benefits to joining the Circle of Champions!
- Fun perks! – Benefits include opportunities to win tickets to Winnipeg concerts & events, an annual Circle of Champions appreciation breakfast, being the first to hear about our most exclusive news and updates, and more! Plus, all monthly donors of at least $5/month receive a Circle of Champions pin!
- You multiply your impact! – Recurring donations compound over time, creating a more significant impact in the long run. Even a modest monthly contribution will build up to substantial support over the course of a year, or several years.
- It’s flexible and convenient! – You set up your gift, and then you don’t have to do anything until you want to make changes. You’re in control. You can change the amount, the time of the month, your payment information or stop anytime you want. Giving monthly also means you get one consolidated receipt at the end of year – much easier to manage than multiple one-time gifts!
- It lowers U-TurnPD’s administrative costs – Automated monthly donations require fewer administrative tasks linked to one-time gifts, like issuing receipts for example. But beyond that, with each new monthly donor, we reduce the need to seek out multiple donors individually. Reducing our costs means more of every dollar goes to work where it matters the most.
- It provides stable, reliable support that U-TurnPD can count on – When we have a predictable flow of revenue, we can more confidently plan for the future. Monthly donors enable us to work even harder to fulfill our mission. Together, we can create lasting change in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s!
I participate in U-Turn Parkinson’s classes. Am I expected to give?
No! At U-Turn Parkinson’s, our programs are always free because we believe every person living with PD deserves access to strength, community, and hope—without barriers. With this as our priority, there is no expectation for our participants to donate.
For those who are able and wish to give back, joining the Circle of Champions is a way to support our programs on a regular basis. Many participants think of it as their “gym membership”—a steady gift that helps keep the doors open, the programs strong, and the community growing.
My question isn’t answered here! How do I contact U-Turn Parkinson’s about a monthly donation and joining the Circle of Champions?
