SPONSOR A FAMILY

As admission to the event is free, most of us won’t think twice about the costs associated with attending this celebration – the money we will bring to pay for parking, the delicious food and passes for our children to enjoy the fun-filled carnival. The unfortunate reality is that many families in the GTA cannot afford these costs. It is too difficult to let one’s child watch all the fun and not be able to participate and therefore many families do not attend the event. We don’t want this to be a reason for families to stay home. Therefore, in partnership with Social Support Organizations, MAC is dedicated to inviting these families free of cost, making the event accessible to all.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to help a family, or at least one child, to celebrate with us. As part of our “Sponsor a Family” campaign please make your donation online.  Tax receipts will be provided for all donations..

VOLUNTEERING

The Eid Festival gathers a diverse attendance that directly reflects the cultural mosaic of Ontario. They provide Muslims an opportunity to feel a sense of identity; most importantly for thousands of children to experience the enjoyment of these celebrations as part of their Canadian identity.

The Eid Festivals are completely organized, executed, and sustained by the efforts of volunteers.

Eid volunteers are special from those who participate in other community events. It is a large sacrifice to dedicate time on a special celebration to make it a day of joy for so many Muslim families and children.
Our volunteers come back year after year. This effort, dedication, and sacrifice result in the success of the Eid Festivals every years.

We need your help ! Register online to volunteer. May All SWT Reward you.

EVENT SPONSORSHIP AND ADVERTISEMENT


Historically over the last 23 years the event has maintained a commitment to provide free admission to encourage everyone to attend; a commitment our community has always valued. In addition MAC strives to provide an event that is affordable for low income families and new immigrants within Toronto. The event has always provided free entrance and subsidized carnival passes.

As MAC is a non-for-profit organization, business sponsorship is integral to the sustainability and continuity of the Eid Festivals.  Check out our sponsorship packages.
