Creating Sustainable Community Benefits:

A New Fundraising Opportunity

After years of dedicated effort, we are excited to launch an innovative platform that combines community-driven marketing, fundraising, and social impact. Our new initiative is designed to raise awareness of local organizations while supporting our LIFE Community Project and FIFE - Food Is For Everyone, helping create ongoing benefits for those in need. This unique opportunity offers a cost-effective way to boost your group or organization's visibility while supporting your fundraising goals without paying for advertising or marketing.

How It Works

We offer a comprehensive campaign package combining print media, website features, and social media to help expand your organization's reach and engagement. Our 4-6 month campaign is available to a maximum of three selected groups at any given time. Now is the perfect opportunity to book a meeting, learn more, and secure your spot in this innovative initiative.

If your organization is chosen, we will collaborate closely with you to develop a tailored awareness campaign that highlights your group’s mission, goals, and fundraising efforts. Through daily social media postings across our network, we will amplify your message, ensuring it reaches a broad audience. In addition, we’ll leverage our connections with local small businesses to display posters and further boost your organization’s visibility.

Expanding Reach with Community Engagement

In order to increase engagement, we will also run free draws and giveaways for those who share, like, and love our content. This will help spread your organization's message and drive participation in your fundraising efforts.

A Transparent Fundraising Model

The heart of our fundraising model lies in product sales. For each product sold, a designated percentage will go directly to your group’s fundraising efforts. When we meet, we will provide a detailed breakdown of the product prices and the percentage allocated to your cause. Some of our featured products, like the popular "T-Shirts & Stickers," will be available throughout the campaign, while others, such as our limited-edition refrigerator magnets, will be sold while supplies last.

In addition to supporting your group’s fundraising, a small percentage of each sale contributes to our ongoing LIFE Community Project and FIFE - Food Is For Everyone initiatives. These programs provide free food, clothing, and other essentials to those in need, fostering a sustainable cycle of giving within our community.

Ongoing Promotions for Maximum Impact

Even as we prepare to onboard the three selected participants, we will kickstart promotions and product sales to fund the LIFE Clothing efforts. Once onboarding is complete, the focus will shift exclusively to supporting the fundraising campaigns for the chosen organizations. At the end of the 4-6 month campaign, we will select three new groups for another round of promotions, with the possibility of extending the duration to for additional month or two based on the success of the initial campaigns and being close to the targeted goals set out during our onboarding process.

A Win-Win for Our Community

This initiative is a win-win for everyone involved. By fostering sustainable funding streams for both our LIFE and FIFE efforts and your organization’s goals, we are creating long-term community benefits. As part of our broader mission, we will soon announce the launch of a new free food program and the introduction of free plants/containers, which will provide year-round access to fresh vegetables for those in need.

This is just the next step in our ongoing journey to create a positive and lasting impact on our community. We are committed to our mission and eager to see how this opportunity can help build a brighter, healthier future for all.

Fundraising Opportunities

12403753681?profile=RESIZE_400x

We like to do things differently and to work with others to create amazing benefits for our community. We have been working on this for a long time, years to bring all the pieces together that will help to provide many ongoing and increasing benefits for our community.
We could have used our network to provide fundraising for our various efforts, but we want to do more and share our expertise and knowledge with others, to help those who also need options for fundraising. The issues that we have seen over the years, we put a lot of thought and planning into creating options that will create some great benefits for our communities.

We have built the entire network for this purpose, to create many layers of benefits for our communities. With free listings for local small businesses, the use of our social media profiles to freely post and share these listings through more than 10 different social networks. This increases the awareness of those listings and their business content information on all the social networks we have for our Just Community Networks. This starts to allow each business/group/organization we list to show in the search results even if those businesses/groups/organizations do not have a profile within those networks. We create our posts across different social networks to ensure that there are no more than 2 clicks without having to search for the business contact information including websites and social media profiles the business has. 

We freely create and post/share our listings, all a business/group/organization needs to do is let us know they would like their free listings unless we have already created a listing for them. We have just begun to rebuild our listings with this new site, allowing us to do more and create added options within our various listings. Being a hyperlocal network allows us a unique ability to focus on content just for our individual communities. 

We have a solid reach and engagement and will rapidly increase and grow our entire network with the start of our new promotions starting. We are going to start to accept a 3-month trial for up to 3 local small groups/organizations that would like to increase the awareness of their group/organization while also generating funding for their efforts. This will be freely done with their permission, including banner ads on our website, and ad space within our video promotions. There will also be print distribution using posters and flyers further raising awareness. We will be adding more and more products that will become available for the fundraising efforts with many of the options being relevant to the community, like the current options with Canvas Prints, Framed Prints, and Refrigerator Magnets using images taken in and from the community.

In the coming days, you will start to see more and more of the promotional material we are working on. You will learn about a couple of new programs that the LIFE Community Project will be starting and how this network is funding these new programs to provide free food/clothing/necessities for those most in need. We will start putting the entire program together and making it publicly available. This will grow at its own pace, we have a lot of work still to do to finish the framework of the programs and projects we are starting. Those choosing to join the network will be able to access some content that will be members only that will including free draws and access to free products. 

Those interested in learning more can contact on here John E Walker, On Facebook, info@JustOshawa.com, or Info@ILFJL.com to arrange a meeting for coffee/tea or can meet at your place in Oshawa.
