New Ontario Nonprofit Network report highlights Peel region’s dramatic spike in demand for non-profit services, amidst inflation and staffing woes

Author Gabe Oatley
86 percent of Peel region respondents to an Ontario Nonprofit Network survey say they’ve seen an year-over-year increase in demand for their services.

Why It Matters

Non-profits provide services many families rely on: food banks, shelters, and therapy. Without a boost in funding to account for rising programming demands and increased costs due to inflation, non-profits are having to cut back on services and programs that residents rely on.
