CHHA currently depends on government grants and membership fees to fund its activities. However, Canada’s hearing loss population is growing and CHHA requires additional resources to fund its innovative programs. The CHHA Foundation was formed as a separate body to raise and manage the investment of funds to generate new income on a year-to-year basis. The CHHA Foundation spends only the income on its investment, rather than the actual capital from donations. With their gifts to the CHHA Foundation, donors are, in effect, establishing a perpetual legacy through their donations. The interest from their capital provides income to support CHHA activities. The CHHA Foundation is positioned to accept and manage not only money, but also other forms of donations such as life insurance, real property, and stocks and bonds.

Too Little Children is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, that was formed to serve the children who have too little. This particular population is especially vulnerable and forgotten, and they feel that it is both their responsibility and privilege to care for them. They have established programs to provide enough for these children, in a variety of different ways. Their programs are constantly being altered and improved as they learn more about their needs and the best ways to meet them. Their focus is developing countries and their scope is broad but simple: they want to provide enough for the children who are in need. They want to go beyond their physical and financial needs because they genuinely believe that a child who is unloved and uncared for suffers as much as the child who has nothing to eat. They are honored to serve all children, regardless of background, beliefs, or tribal affiliations.

With over 140 million people in Bangladesh and with no other institution like it in the country, the Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed focuses on a holistic approach to rehabilitation, recognising that all aspects of the rehabilitation process are vital for its success.

Since 1979, CRP has served the most vulnerable of Bangladesh and developed into an internationally respected organization. Today, five different CRP sites function across the country and an academic institute has pioneered the training of relevant health professionals. A school provides inclusive education in an enabling environment for young children who would otherwise never have the opportunity to receive education. Public awareness and passionate advocacy for Bangladesh's disabled population is an ongoing and overarching goal of CRP.
