Northern Cancer Research Foundation (NCRF) In 2006, MIRARCO supported the Northeastern Ontario Cancer Regional Cancer Centre through the NCRF. Staff and students gave of their time and their hair in the Guiness World Record breaking event, Shave for the Record, raising over $800.

Through the donation of time and talent, funds were raised to support two worthy causes in 2005, with events such as a Lunch Box Auction, 50/50 draw, yard sale, Bowling for Charity event, and a Winter Wish raffle co-sponsored by Hide Away Lodge, local artist Jim Cook, Golf Sudbury, and individual donors.

MIRARCO was a proud supporter of Special Olympics Ontario, which provides services to over 14,000 people with intellectual disabilities, allowing them to live a fuller and more integrated life within their communities.

MIRARCO staff and students learned about homeless issues in Sudbury, and how some organizations such as the Blue Door Café are helping to reach out to the less fortunate. Feeding up to 400 meals per day, the Blue Door Café is a life line for a group of people that would not be able to make it through the month otherwise.

Midhun Madhu is a 9 year old from the Tsunami-hit region of Chennai, India. This one-year sponsorship helped to raise funds for his basic living needs, and that of his family, as well as rebuilding the life of families in his community. Midhun has responded warmly to his sponsors through pictures and cards throughout the year, and it has been a privilege to lend support to those in need not only in our community, but around the world.
