Signing the Canadian Philanthropic Commitment on Climate Change has been an important step in accelerating [our] climate action. We are grateful for the learning we have gained from the network of signatories and look forward to continuing to work together.

The CPCCC’s resource guide is a particularly useful tool for finding/generating content in our internal capacity-building efforts to ensure that our boards, investment committees, staff, volunteers and stakeholders are informed about the systemic causes, impacts and solutions of climate change, and the implications for our work.

This has been a great tool for keeping the topics of climate and Indigenous sovereignty front of mind not only in our granting but all aspects of our operations and the resources available to us.

The CPCCC’s resource guide and facilitated sessions have helped us develop our internal capacity-building efforts to ensure that our Board, investment committee, staff and stakeholders are informed about the systemic causes, impacts and solutions of climate change, and the implications for our work. The reporting process provided a welcome framework to take stock of and celebrate the progress we’ve made under our Climate Change strategy. We’re grateful to PFC, EFC, CFC, and the Circle for this valuable collaboration.
