The Furry Friends Animal Shelter is a non-profit, no-kill organization dedicated to providing shelter and love to abandoned, lost or rescued animals in the Barrie community. We provide care to 500+ cats and kittens each year. We do not euthanize healthy animals for any reason.
We are a registered charity (#882610124), funded by generous donors and supporters and operated completely by dedicated volunteers.
Furry Friends has been rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming cats for over 20 years.
Rescue: We take in surrenders, strays and hoarded cats, and work with other local animal rescue organizaitons and people in the community to trap/rescue cats in need. Because we’re entirely donation supported a surrender fee will be requested to cover costs we’ll incur. The amount depends on the number & condition of the cat(s).
Rehabilitation: At the shelter and in foster homes we provide proper nutrition, essential vaccines, microchips and ensure that all cats and kittens are spayed/neutered. When necessary, we arrange emergency surgeries and medical treatments. We are dedicated to socializing and building trust with fearful cats, and offer lots of TLC, no matter what.
Rehoming: As soon as our furry friends are adoption-ready, we work with adoption partners (PetSmart and Pet Valu) - and our shelter and foster volunteers - to match them with loving families in our community. We also work hard to reunite lost cats with their pet parents.

Roots for Youth is a charitable foundation established in 2018 by the Ferragine family, founding owners of Bradford Greenhouses Ltd for 61 years. After hosting charitable golf tournaments to raise funds for Children’s Wish for 30 years, the family now directs its charitable efforts to helping teens who are struggling to extend their education due to a family tragedy or financial hardship.
The aim of the charity is to create bursaries to reduce the burden of post-secondary education so that teens and young adults in need can plant their roots and grow to become productive members of the community. As our name suggests, we are looking to assist students pursuing education in fields related to our organization such as agricultural or environmental studies, however our primary focus is to help fund local students who are struggling due to difficult family or financial situations.

The Barrie Thunder Classics in partnership with the Das Kruisers VW Club here in Barrie are jointly running a food drive. We’ll be collecting non perishable items and cash donations at our trailer for the season. You can catch up with the Das Kruisers at the many events they attend throughout the region. Arrangements can also be made to drop off items outside of events.
Who we are
Established in 1998, Canadian Blood Services is an independent, not-for-profit charitable organization primarily funded by the governments of all provinces and territories except Quebec. Regulated as a biologics manufacturer by Health Canada, we are responsible for ensuring that patients across the country have safe, reliable access to the high-quality blood, plasma, stem cells, and organs and tissues they need.
Our role as the national blood authority was established in a memorandum of understanding between the federal, provincial and territorial governments following the Royal Commission of Inquiry by Justice Horace Krever into Canada’s blood contamination crisis. The principles articulated in Justice Krever’s final report continue to guide our policy development and decision-making.
Canadian Blood Services provides blood and blood products for transfusion, manages a formulary of plasma protein and related products used in a wide array of medical conditions, and also manages stem cell registry services and cord blood banking, on behalf of all provincial and territorial governments except Quebec. Our national transplant registry for interprovincial organ sharing and related programs extends to all provinces and territories.
We collaborate with patient groups, care providers, health system leaders, communities of donors, other blood service organizations and governments to continuously improve the effectiveness of Canada’s health systems and achieve the best possible patient outcomes. Working with this diverse community of stakeholders, we contribute to the advancement and excellence of both national and international networks focused on transfusion and transplantation.
