WE Charity is a Canadian non-profit organization that I contributed time and effort to throughout my years in elementary and secondary school.

OTTAWA 鈥� A poverty-fighting group, fresh from a victory over a law that threatened its status as a charity, is facing another round of legal fighting after the federal government appealed the court ruling.

WASHINGTON 鈥� Catholic dioceses and charities are quickly organizing to help in the aftermath of a Category 4 hurricane that made landfall with heavy rains and winds of 130 miles per hour late Aug. 25 into the Rockport, Texas area, northeast of Corpus Christi.

VATICAN CITY 鈥� With a trip to South Sudan postponed indefinitely, Pope Francis is sending close to a half-million dollars to help two church-run hospitals, a teacher training center and farming projects for families as a way to show the people there his solidarity and support.

TORONTO - After years of free service, churches, shelters, charities and non-profit organizations could be on the hook as the City of Toronto plans to start charging a fee for trash pickup.

The city has said there will be no increase for homeowners in terms of their garbage pickup, but parishioners may be asked to give a little bit to help offset the new fees for churches, said Neil MacCarthy, director of communications for the archdiocese of Toronto.

鈥淪o really, you鈥檙e just going back to the same people to ask for more to support this change,鈥� he said.

The proposal is one of the items on the table as the city works on its 2012 budget. A long list of cuts and increased service fees are on tap as the city struggles to find ways to balance its budget.

MacCarthy said while he understands the city is looking for ways to realize some cost efficiencies, the new proposal is going to have significant implications on the roughly 125 parishes within city limits in the archdiocese of Toronto.

鈥淚t really depends on the frequency of pickup at a church for garbage and鈥� the number of bins they might have at a church,鈥� he said. 鈥淪o if it鱿鱼视频app weekly with a bin, they鈥檙e talking about $800 a year.鈥�

But it鱿鱼视频app difficult to say how many parishes would be affected by this as some use city services while others use private garbage collection, said MacCarthy.

The city wants to start charging a fee for this service 鈥渋n order to make the system fair overall and to prompt those new to the fee system to improve their waste diversion efforts,鈥� according to a document sent to non-residential customers.

For a curbside bin emptied bi-weekly, the cost is $403, weekly is $806 and twice weekly is $1,612.

The changes would be phased in, with a yearly 25-per-cent increase effective July 1, 2012 and full trash pickup fees effective Jan. 1, 2015.

St. Francis Table, a ministry that provides meals for the less fortunate in Parkdale, would be one of the agenices affected by the trash pickup fee. Br. John Frampton, who runs St. Francis Table, said it鱿鱼视频app a crime that charities and church groups are being singled out to pick up the city鱿鱼视频app costs.

鈥淲e try to keep it to a minimum,鈥� he said. 鈥淲e compost, we take care of the paper and plastics. We comply with garbage bag content and I just think it鱿鱼视频app another money grab to pay for services that are costing too much.鈥�

The poor are getting poorer, he said.

鈥淲e are feeding the hungry here six days a week,鈥� said Frampton. 鈥淎nd other groups are doing justice amidst injustice that鱿鱼视频app being done by the government that should be responsible to these people.

鈥淪t. Francis Table is responsible for feeding the hungry of Toronto and this is the appreciation we get.鈥�

The proposal also includes charging transfer station tipping fees of $100 per tonne of waste to previously exempt non-profits, including the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

鈥淲ith the collection, we get a lot of really generous donors that are really careful about what they donate, but we also get a lot of stuff that鱿鱼视频app just not usable at all and it has to go to the dump,鈥� said Louise Coutu, executive director of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in Toronto.

鈥淔or years, the Society has had an arrangement with the city where we don鈥檛 pay tipping fees because it鱿鱼视频app realized that this stuff is our responsibility, but if it weren鈥檛 going to us to be sorted, there would probably be more going directly to the dump,鈥� she said.

Coutu estimates this will cost an additional $20,000 on its annual budget.

鈥淚t鱿鱼视频app not just the tipping fee we鈥檙e paying, it鱿鱼视频app our truck out there, our guys,鈥� she said. 鈥淪o it is expensive for us. We鈥檝e seen it as part of our service. You can鈥檛 look in everyone鱿鱼视频app bag when they鈥檙e donating to you.鈥�
