What is a Foundation? |
 |
A simple definition of a community foundation is a "pooling of resources in the community for the community". Technically speaking, it is an incorporated not-for-profit organization which is registered with the Canadian
Customs and Revenue Agency
as a tax-exempt
public
foundation and is allotted a charitable registration number.
The foundation is allowed to issue income tax receipts for contributions. |
