Our Cause Is Every Cause
As Canada's largest charitable social enterprise our mission is to inform, inspire, and connect donors and charities, and to democratize access to effective technology and education in the charitable sector.
We envision a society in which all Canadians are committed to giving and participating in the charitable sector, and in which all charities, regardless of size, have the capacity to increase their impact.
