Causeway Work Centre's primary funding comes from the three levels of government - federal, provincial and municipal. At present, various circumstances are combining to put pressure on Causeway’s capacity to fulfill its mission. These include greater demand for services, an unfavourable change in the funding environment brought about by government deficits, as well as serious labour market challenges for persons with mental illness. It is this pressing need for additional funding that brought about the establishment of The Causeway Foundation in 1999. The Foundation mission is: To raise and distribute funds to support Causeway Work Centre programs and services to further the well-being of persons with mental illness and other disabilities.

There are a number of ways you can help.

• Develop a relationship between your community group or church and Causeway.
• Help Causeway's clients by identifying opportunities for jobs, work experience and training.
• Consider Krackers Katering for food service at your next event. Krackers is an agency-sponsored entrepreneurial business employing persons with severe and persistent mental illness. They offer exciting menus and will cater meetings, luncheons, dinners and other private or corporate functions. Call Krackers at (613) 792-4954
