Grants & Donations
How donations and grants make a difference…
Every dollar counts!
Com-Span Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that is funded by the Province of Manitoba to provide services during the day for people with developmental disabilities.
However, provincial funding is not provided for:
- Large capital projects such as the purchase of wheel-chair accessible vans
- Expensive modifications to the building that houses the program
- Extra activities and equipment such as Chill Out chair, Massage Chair, Television and DVD player and Floppy Island bed are not possible within the annual budget expenditures

How we have used donations…
Individual donations and grants from service clubs and businesses are a very important part of the income of Com-Span.
They have paid for:
- A wheel-chair accessible van
- Tracking on the ceiling and lifts for people with mobility challenges,
- Push-button electronic doors,
- A plinth bed with electronic lift
- Musical instruments, e.g. keyboard, guitar
- Specialized leisure and recreational equipment.
