In becoming a member of CareNow Ontario you will be supporting the critical work of a patient organization which is advocating for the creation of a system of reliable and accessible care for those living with ME/CFS, FM and MCS. Together our voices will have an impact on creating change in government policy and community medical practice to ensure those in need will have access to care that can improve their quality of life. When you do become a member we look forward to having you join us for the May 12th International ME/CFS Day usually held at Queen’s Park to raise awareness, you will receive informative newsletters and participate in our annual general meeting (AGM) – all to help you stay apprised of current actions and initiatives by CareNow Ontario toward meeting its goals.
CareNow Ontario’s fiscal year runs from January 1st to December 31st. Memberships are renewed on an annual basis in November/December. We send out renewal notices in September and you will have 60 days to renew. We send out one reminder notice.
All new memberships and renewals are approved by the CareNow board.
You can become a new member at any time of the year and your membership would run to the end of the calendar year.
We use the “Canada Helps” service for the collection of donations and issuance of tax receipts.

There are several members who enrol a second member. To make it easier for those who have two memberships per household, you can register two members per household on the same Canada Helps form. Just remember to select a donation of $50 and note in the box “Send a Message to this Charity” on the Canada Helps form, the full names of those you are registering as members and their email addresses.
