​​​FAQs

As a community seeking grants, what do we need to be a qualified donee to accept grants from this Collaborative? ​​

The Collaborative can grant to a public body performing a function of public government. Generally this includes two types of entities:
  1. Registered charities, which are typically organizations that have formally received charitable status from the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA). These are usually NGOs and foundations.
  2. An Indigenous or municipal government or claims-based co-management entity. As of 2014, these entities are required to register with the CRA.

Qualified donees are as follows (information from the Canadian Revenue Agency website):
  • a registered Canadian amateur athletic association;
  • a listed housing corporation resident in Canada constituted exclusively to provide low-cost housing for the aged;
  • a listed Canadian municipality;
  • a listed municipal or public body performing a function of government in Canada;
  • a listed university outside Canada that is prescribed to be a university, the student body of which ordinarily includes students from Canada;
  • a listed charitable organization outside Canada to which Her Majesty in right of Canada has made a gift;
  • Her Majesty in right of Canada, a province, or a territory; and
  • the United Nations and its agencies.
