Click our DONATE NOW button to donate online (tax receipts valid in Canada only). Or, see our Donations page for information on how you can donate via cheque and for information on donations from the United States (receiving a valid tax receipt).

There are many ways to you can raise funds towards your contribution. How about organizing a car wash, garage sale, a craft/bake sale or a party and donating the proceeds to Equip KIDS. 

Note: We are currently putting a sponsorship program in place, whereby your monthly contribution will be directed to sponsoring a particular child. Through this program you will receive regular updates about the child, and you may exchange letters with the child and his/her family. If you are interested in finding out more about this program, please write us at info@equipkids.org  

Donations of assistive-technology equipment (new or used) are also greatly appreciated and highly valued. 

Spread the word: 

The easiest way to help is simply to spread the word. Tell friends,  family and colleagues about the reality for children with disabilities in developing countries. Tell them about our goals, hopes, our website address and our blog.

 Volunteer: 
 

Are you a physiotherapist, assistive-technology practitioner, occupational therapist or speech- language pathologist? We could really use your help! We work with professionals looking for overseas volunteer experiences, as well as those wanting to help out from home. We are currently in particular need of professionals who are fluent in both Spanish and English, in order to help with the development and translation of educational materials. 
 

Participate in Events:

Become involved in one of Equip KIDS International's exciting and innovative events. 

The Incan Challenge is a 9 day trip to Peru, where you will discover the people, food, music and incredible sites of this wonderful land. You will trek the famous Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, while raising awareness and support for children with disabilities. And, while in Peru, you will get a chance to meet the children your efforts will support. Space is still available but limited for this year's trip (October 9 - 17, 2010), so write us for more information soon.

Other upcoming events include our participation in the Unite for Sight Global Health and Innovation Conference (April 17-18, 2010 at Yale University) and the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon (September 26th, 2010).
