How to Grant
Making a grant to a Canadian registered charity through your Fund is an easy process, and the Jewish Foundation team is always here to help.
How do I recommend a grant?
You may recommend a grant in one of the following ways:
Use the form on our donor portal.
(If you do not have access to the donor portal yet, please contact your philanthropic advisor.)
Directly contact your philanthropic advisor at the Jewish Foundation.
Once we have verified the organization’s charitable status and completed other due diligence work, we will issue the grant to the organization.
Grants are approved and processed on a bi-monthly basis.
Who can I support through my fund?
We are a public foundation and a registered charity. As such, we can provide grants to qualified recipients as defined by the Canadian Revenue Agency. This list includes:
- Registered Canadian charities
- Registered Canadian amateur athletic associations
- Registered national arts service organizations
- Municipalities, provinces, territories, and the federal government
- Certain universities outside of Canada
Is your grant supporting an event, a scholarship, or a membership at an organization? Certain government rules may apply.
If you are unsure if the organization you wish to support is eligible, please contact the Jewish Foundation at 416-631-5703 or email jewishfoundation@ujafed.org.
