Re: February 27 unoffical update

Good point, sir - I have worked very hard over the past 10 years to rid myself of credit cards, so I definitely hear you. I hope they take debit cards, which are much less odious.

I sent an email to the UHN Foundation folks, (foundation@uhn.ca) asking them to add smaller amounts, and to allow recurring monthly donations.

If you have time, please also send them an email, asking about checks, money orders, and debit cards - they may need to hear form a bunch of us before they take any action.

Thanks for all of your help, everyone 👍

Debit cards operate in exactly the same way as credit cards from the aspect of completing the form. The differences being that the money is debited directly from your cheqie account rather than going via a credit card account and the merchant charges are lower.

You are correct, so I contacted UHN Foundation directly (Foundation@uhn.ca), and it turns out that they have humans on staff ! A nice one responded:

Good afternoon,
Thank you for reaching UHN Foundation.
We appreciate your thoughts about our donations page and will forward your feedback to the appropriate person.
Thanks and have a wonderful day!
Best regards, Sheryl
Development Coordinator, Community Giving
UHN Foundation


If just a few more of our volunteers contact them about adding smaller donation amounts, setting up recurring, and accepting checks/money orders, they will likely respond with some sort of improvements, so please contact them about this issue.

Thanks again, all
