webSaver.ca Surpasses $100,000 Mark in Breakfast for Learning Charitable Donations
Toronto, Ontario (PRWEB) September 05, 2013 -- webSaver.ca, the leading online coupon distributor and publisher in Canada, has met and exceeded $100,000 in charitable donations to Breakfast for Learning. The company has pledged a total of $105,535 since 2011 and has an additional goal of $60,000 set for 2013.
In supporting Breakfast for Learning, webSaver.ca has pledged to donate 5 cents from every coupon redeemed and in 2012 alone the company raised over $50,000 for the organization. Because of webSaver.ca’s contributions, 105 school-based nutrition programs across Canada have received grants, resulting in meals and snacks for 80,673 active students.
“Our company operates on a simple set of ideas, that is to help consumers Save, Live and Give,” said Nizam Walji, President and Managing Partner of webSaver.ca. “Staying true to the ‘give’ portion of our motto, we’ve elected to help feed the hungry minds of children across Canada. In contributing to Breakfast for Learning, we’re making an impact in the lives of students and in turn, fueling the next generation of our country in a way that will help them succeed. This has only been possible because of offers made available by our brand partners and our nearly two million members who make it a point to redeem webSaver.ca coupons.”
For more than 20 years, Breakfast for Learning has operated extensively in all 10 of Canada’s provinces, as well as across three territories, to support and sustain school-based breakfasts, lunches and snacks. In that time, 2.9 million children in Canada have enjoyed more than 367 million meals. Studies have linked higher levels of discipline, cooperation, problem-solving and interpersonal behavior to students who consume a healthy breakfast, resulting in a healthier atmosphere for development and interaction.
In keeping with its grounded business model, webSaver.ca has elected to support Breakfast for Learning because of its highly impactful efforts. Breakfast for Learning maintains low administration and operational costs, resulting in the highest possible amount of donations being attributed to the end cause. In its most recently audited financial statements, the nonprofit organization earned a Good Works Index of 84 percent, meaning 84 cents of every dollar donated to the organization can be traced directly to charitable good works.
“Breakfast for Learning is hugely beneficial to children and we have a lot of confidence in the organization because of its continually transparent operations,” said Nizam Walji. “This is a charity that shares many of our same principles and supporting them is something that we’re extremely proud to do and something our team is proud to be a part of because we’re able to see the results of what we’re doing directly.”
