LONDON, Ontario -- February 9, 2024.
Dear Community Members,
LONDON, Ontario (January 31, 2024) -- Pillar Nonprofit Network has submmitted a suite of recommendations to the provincial government that would see investment in Ontario nonprofits as ever-ready partners to government in delivering innovative solutions on public priorities in a collaborative way.
One of the things we heard loud and clear from Pillar members and the community this year -- not least through the work of Pillar's Community Advisory Panel -- was a desire to receive updates from leadership regarding the organization's operations.
It is the season of giving, and what better way to spread holiday cheer than by choosing gifts that make a positive impact on the world?

LONDON, Ontario, October 18, 2023 -- Pillar and 28 of its member organizations have made a submission to a government committee calling for the reversal of planned cuts to Canada Summer Jobs (CSJ) and a number of other improvements to the wage subsidy program that helps nonprofits deliver community benefits while supporting youth employment.
In the wake of a rise in Ontario’s minimum wage, still well short of a living wage in London and most other communities, and in light of new threats to the health and safety of workers in health care and education, Pillar is marking the approach of World Day for Decent Work by recommitting to the principles of Decent Work and calling our network to action.
As we prepare for the eleventh observance of Orange Shirt Day this year and the third time it has also been observed as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we are struck both by the many ways we can learn and connect in community and also by the little real progress that has been made toward Reconciliation with Indigenous people.
