In 2020, at the beginning of the pandemic, I decided to donate 100% of profits from my INPRNT print shop to charity. As time went on, I decided I would continue to do for the forseeable future as long as I can. It’s not much, but every bit counts, and it also gives me the chance to feature amazing organizations and people doing invaluable work.

Currently supporting (updated November 28, 2025)
Biome Conservation, formerly the International Conservation Fund of Canada (ICFC) is "Canada’s leading international conservation organization, with projects in more than 30 countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia." They work closely with local and Indigenous groups and consistently receive high rankings for impact in charity assessments like Charity Intelligence.
You can read more of my thoughts on climate crisis and the environment in this June 2023 Pillowfort post. A few more resources I shared in 2024:
- ClimateFast - Canadian volunteer-based non-profit organization dedicated to building strong, informed public pressure to take urgent, substantial and just action on climate change.
- 3 questions to build resilience - and change the world - A talk from Sister True Dedication offering a Zen Buddhist perspective that may be helpful. More resources in the link!
- Future Mending - Podcast and newsletter initiative by the Climate Pledge Collective, focused on building hope and resilience. Toronto-based but also offers ideas and resources for anywhere.
Other charities previously highlighted and supported
More climate crisis and environmental charities:
- David Suzuki Foundation: A long-trusted Canadian charity focused on climate solutions, thriving nature, and sustainable communities through evidence-based research, policy analysis, education and citizen empowerment.
- Nature Conservancy of Canada: They’ve been safeguarding Canada’s natural environment since 1967, protecting 15 million hectares across the country since founding including forests, grasslands and marine areas. They secure properties (acquiring them via donations, purchasing, conservation agreements etc.) and manage these habitats long-term for many at-risk species.
Indigenous charities/communities:
- Indigenous Residential School Survivors Society: Services supporting Indian Residential School survivors, students and intergenerational survivors.
- Indigenous Peoples Solidarity Fund: A fund where donations are pooled and distributed amongst 50+ Indigenous-led organizations across Canada.
- Indspire: Investing in the education of First Nations, Inuit and Métis people for the long term benefit of these individuals, their families and communities, and Canada.
Organizations I've worked with directly (volunteering, collaboration, etc.):
- Philip Aziz Centre and Emily’s House: A community-based hospice and Toronto’s only children’s hospice, endorsed and supported by Sick Kids Hospital. A wonderful organization full of amazing and caring staff.
- Toronto Public Library: Libraries are true wonders, and the TPL has been a huge part of my life since childhood. It offers so many free community resources, and is the busiest urban public library system in the world!
- Plum Village / Thich Nhat Hanh Foundation: The Plum Village tradition established by Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) has helped so many people to deepen a practice of mindfulness, and to live as fully as possible. In gratitude to Thay, I continue donating profits from sales of my lanhua illustration to this charity.
