Philanthropic Foundations Canada is Canada's network of grantmaking private and public foundations. • We strengthen Canadian philanthropy – in all of its diversity and in its pursuit of a just, equitable, and sustainable world. • We are a network that activates the power of people to shape their communities and protect the natural environment. • We take a long view and stay engaged to have a meaningful impact. • We are pragmatic and responsive in creating space for foundations to act and learn collaboratively. • We share in the responsibility to create an inclusive philanthropic community based on trust and respect. Systemic racism and discrimination undermine our efforts. We work to strengthen relations with Indigenous Peoples, and to promote racial justice and equity for all. • We are responsible stewards of wealth and other resources to support charitable and not-for-profit partners. Our collective work serves the public good in a non-partisan and transparent manner. • We are continually learning how to translate these commitments into our practices – creatively and constructively.
