Bedkits - the "All Occasion" Gift

Each SCAW bedkit costs *$35 Canadian.

Bedkits can be used to:

  • Celebrate births, birthdays, graduations, weddings, anniversaries, retirements, Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year's, Chinese New Year's, etc.
  • Offer a meaningful “In Memoriam”
  • Give as a thoughtful “thank you” for business associates, friends, etc.

Photos from bedkit distributions are mailed within 4 to 6 months.

Donor Profile

Individual donors account for two-thirds of all donations, while churches, schools, service clubs, and the corporate community represent the remaining one-third.

Most donors give bedkits, but our financial structure also makes it possible to donate to help pay our annual operating expenses, or to strengthen SCAW long-term by donating to the Legacy Account.

Most of our donations come from Canadians, but we are able to accept donations by means of a cheque or money order in US Dollars or British Pounds mailed to the SCAW office at the address to the left.

We have added the PayPal option to our website so you can make bedkit donations on-line by credit card and in currencies other than Canadian dollars. To donate a bedkit, just go to our secure pages.

*$35 bedkits

Effective September 1, 2008, the price of a bedkit is $35.

For the last 18 years the price of a bedkit has remained at $30. The mosquito nets that are recommended for Africa by the World Health Organization are more costly and due to inflation, especially in Africa and Central America, $30 does not have enough purchasing power to provide the number of items that should comprise a bedkit.

As always, 100% of your bedkit donation goes directly to the child.
