Starting a Fund

Some individuals already have a clear idea of where they would like to donate their funds. Additionally, there are many generous individuals who wish to give back and support their community as part of their financial or estate plan. 

Our goal is to make it easy for you to invest in philanthropy in a sustainable manner, rather than a one-time gift. With the endowment approach, you can invest your initial capital donation and make a lasting impact. The profit from your original investment is gifted every year, indefinitely, to charities that do fantastic work.!

You can start a named fund with a substantial gift now or with a small amount of capital ($5,000 over three years), creating a container gift for additional gifts in the future or a future bequest. We can create a fund agreement that reflects your intentions precisely, allowing the Foundation to act on your wishes. You can also name the Foundation as a beneficiary and/or owner of life insurance policies, RRSPs, RRIFs, or as a beneficiary in your will. We will work with you and your financial advisor to discuss these options in detail and always in the strictest confidence.
