Donating to CSSDP

CSSDP is a registered not-for-profit organization run completely by the hard work of the students and young people involved and aided bt donations from everyday generous philanthropists like you. Here are a few ways you can help support CSSDP's work

Make a Financial Contribution

Direct financial support is a key way to maintain the operation and growth of any not-for-profit organization. Your financial contribution allows CSSDP to increase the scope and impact of our work.

Your donation helps support things such as

CSSDP chapter supplies. Your donation provides chapters with simple but valuable outreach materials, such as stickers, buttons, t-shirts, books and more. It also allows chapters to produce and distribute materials made by young Canadians, for young Canadians.

Producing educational materials and strategies
. With the knowledge and support of CSSDP’s members and allies, we are going to be increasing the amount of honest information on drugs and drug policy available on our website. We are also working to produce more resources for distribution.

CSSDP’s annual national student run conference
. This event is the only major drug policy reform conference in Canada, and a great opportunity for all Canadians young and old to come learn about the latest issues and developments regarding drugs, drug policy, treatment and education strategies. (also see our ‘Sponsor a Student’ program below!)

As a grassroots student and youth group, your donations are essential and a greatly appreciated form of support. Please consider making a financial donation so that CSSDP can work to provide an independent voice for youth at all levels of government. The amount is up to you, nothing is too small (or too large!).

Donate to our ‘Sponsor a Student’ program!

CSSDP hosts Canada’s only national student run drug policy conference every year in a different Canadian city. We provide subsidies to youth and students from coast to coast to attend. This year’s conference will be in Toronto and we will need travel and hotel subsidies to get as many young people from across the country there as possible. Please help us provide more young Canadians the opportunity to attend by donating to our ‘Sponsor a Student’ program.

“CSSDP paid for my flight to Vancouver, without which I WOULD NOT have been able to attend the conference where I got to live and breathe drug policy for three days with great friends and inspiring individuals.”
