2024 marks PFC’s 25th Anniversary and our national conference in Ottawa on September 23-25th! In anticipation of philanthropy coming TOGETHER later this year, throughout the year we will be showcasing important conversations across our conference program streams: Fundamentals, Trends & Tensions, and Collaboration.   

Our first stream, Fundamentals, offers practical educational sessions that range from introductory (101) to technical (201) on topics including governance, grantmaking, investing, data, regulation, government relations, equity, research and more.  

Session no. 2: Granting to non-qualified donees

In late December 2023, the Canada Revenue Agency finalized their guidelines on new rules introduced by the Government of Canada on granting to non-qualified donees – non-profits, grassroots groups and others without charitable status but nonetheless carry out charitable activities.

At this webinar, participants will be provided with a high-level overview of the rules and the guidance, practical examples to consider in partnering with NQDs, and information about a forthcoming resource to support foundations in these types of partnerships.

  • Sara Krynitzki, Director of Public Affairs and Research, PFC
  • Todd Jaques, Director, Policy and Research, MakeWay
  • Jane Rabinowicz, Chief Program Officer, McConnell Foundation
