The Georgina Cares Fund

Applying For Funding

The Georgina Cares Fund provides funding to children up to the age of 15, who live in the Town of Georgina, to take part in extra curricular activities or for special needs when their parents/guardians cannot afford to do so.


Georgina Cares also helps local families with the Compassion Fund. If a family has experienced a significant, unforeseen, or catastrophic occurrence (such as medical, accidental, death), funding may be available on a one-time basis to help assist with some of the financial stress during this time.

Georgina Cares along with HighwayMen and others donates 19k to Pefferlaw boy in need

July 2023

We were invited to Taps n’ Tracks to meet with the HighwayMen to accept a very generous donation for Georgina Cares from their recent Poker Run. We were thrilled to be part of a group of like minded people who came to support a fabulous young man in Pefferlaw who requires a wheelchair and some home improvements . It turns out, the initial goal of raising $2k for the cause turned into almost $19k in donations from Taps n’ Tracks and their customers, the HighWayMen, Pefferlaw Lions Club EgyptHall Board, Sutton Masons and Georgina Cares.

It really takes a village and we’re proud to be part of this one 🥰
