Update to Services in consideration of COVID-19: In consideration of provincial and federal guidelines, Gift Funds Canada will have limited staff and office hours starting in September, 2020. We will continue to provide full services to our donors and the charities that they support, but it may take us longer than usual as we accommodate the current procedures. Please send gift information to gifts@giftfunds.com and grant requests to grants@giftfunds.com

Please send all other general inquiries via email to contactus@giftfunds.com and we'll direct them to the most appropriate staff member who will reply as soon as possible by phone or email. Please know that we will do everything we can to continue to serve you and the organizations that depend on grants from your funds. Take care.

Fund Forms and Guide

“It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.”

— Ralph Waldo Emerson

Charitable Gift Fund Forms & Program Guide

There are agreement forms available to establish Charitable Gift Funds or to make additional contributions to existing funds. Grant recommendations may be made at the time of establishing the fund or by filling out the relevant sections at a later date. The forms are provided in Adobe Acrobat format. Once you have printed off a copy, please complete the agreement as per the instructions on each form.

The Foundation currently offers the two Charitable Gift Fund options. For details on these options, please refer to the Donor Program Guide or contact Gift Funds Canada. Donors may select either the Classic ($25,000 minimum) or the Flex ($100,000 minimum) option, depending on your personal objectives.
