BBE is a non-profit registered charity. Each year BBE must fundraise a set amount in order to support current programming levels.  Funds raised above this set amount are used for special projects, special events and to further enhance existing children’s programming.  Four to five times a year we ask that families participate to help us achieve our fundraising goal.  We understand that fundraising may be time consuming and therefore families may voluntarily opt to make a donation in lieu of taking part in the fundraising events.  
 
Donations may be made by cheque, cash or money order. Staff will provide a charitable donation receipt for the donated amount to the donor. The name and address of the donor will be on the receipt.
 
If you are donating gifts of property such as toys, books, equipment, or tickets for auction, staff will provide a receipt for the fair market value of the gift (if determinable) less any advantage greater than $75. For example, if donated tickets were purchased in bulk, the face value of the ticket less the bulk savings amount would be the fair market value for receipt purposes.  For more information on the Canadian Revenue Agency guidelines for charitable gifts, please visit: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/chrts-gvng/chrts/prtng/rcpts/dtrmnfmv-eng.html
