Whether you break open your piggy bank, put on a large fundraising event, or anything in between; if you wish to present your donation, during TeleMiracle, please visit our On-Air Presentation page for all the details and fill out an On-Air Presentation application form (not including those selected for Sask. Talent). You will be assigned a time and given further instructions 1-2 weeks prior to the telethon.
You can continue fundraising as long or as little as you want. We accept donations all year long (our fiscal year is July 1 to June 30); however, if you want your donation amount to be included in the final total during TeleMiracle, you must submit all donations, with supporting documents, to the Kinsmen Foundation office at least one week prior to the telethon. Or bring it with you to the telethon.
This gives the staff time to verify the donation amount and pass along the information to those who post the totals during the telethon.
You can mail your cheques, made payable to TeleMiracle, (please DO NOT mail cash) and paperwork to:
Kinsmen TeleMiracle

Methods of payments accepted for online donations, 50/50 tickets, online souvenirs, etc. will depend on the 3rd party that manages that item.
For donations made directly to the office, we accept major credit cards and cheques. We can also accept cash, if delivered in person. Please do NOT mail cash.
The office does not accept debit or etransfers at this time.
Count it all up and make sure it balances with any tracking sheets you have.

Kinsmen TeleMiracle
2217C Hanselman Crt
Saskatoon SK S7L 6A8
Attention: Wendi Cowles
If any of your donors requested a tax receipt, make sure their first and last name, along with their mailing address and amount of donation is included in the documents you send back. Wendi will send tax receipts directly to the donors, after the telethon.
Donations should be forwarded to the Kinsmen Foundation office within 30 days of the fundraising event. If you have any questions, please contact Wendi. Her information is on the Contact Us page.
All online donations get a tax receipt via email at time of donation.
All offline donations of $10 or more qualify for an income tax receipt (official Income Tax Receipts). Tax receipts are sent out from the Kinsmen Foundation office around May.
Simply submit the first and last name of the donor, along with a mailing address and the amount they donated. A phone number and email address are also helpful, if we have any questions for the donor.
Each individual who donates $100 plus the TeleMiracle year (ie. $145 for TeleMiracle 45 bear, $146 for a TM 46 bear, etc.) of their own money AND checks the box to request a bear, will have one mailed out to them in June following the telethon. If you donate twice the minimum amount, you can request 2 bears. Higher donations can request more bears; however, quantities of bears are limited.
NOTE: Money you acquired through fundraising does not qualify for you to get a bear. However, if one of the donors who participated in your fundraiser for TeleMiracle gives the right amount, he/she/they are eligible to receive a bear, if they request it.
We have posters, stickers, coin boxes, and fundraising kits (items in the kit vary based on what we have available, but could include a teddy bear, t-shirt and other annual swag). We also have fundraising tracking sheets available to record the funds raised, etc.
To have some sent to you, simply contact our Diane Brakefield, our TeleMiracle Administrator via the Contact Us page.
