OTTAWA, ON – Giving Tuesday is November 30 and Archery Canada, in partnership with the Canadian Archery Foundation (CAF), is launching a campaign to raise funds for the Canadian team competing in the 2022 3D World Championships, taking place in Italy next September.

For every dollar raised by Archery Canada on Giving Tuesday, the CAF will contribute matching funds to a maximum of $5,000. Funds raised will support athletes in their journey to the world stage. All gifts are eligible for a tax receipt.

Canada will strive to send a full cohort of 24 athletes across four different bow types (compound, barebow, longbow, and instinctive). Your gift will be instrumental in supporting the team that will wear the maple leaf in Italy next year – and it will have double the impact thanks to the Canadian Archery Foundation.
