Create a Fund

Helping your company to create lasting, positive impacts in the community.

We know the issues and the organizations working to address them. You and your company want to give back to the community and make an impact. Sounds like the makings of a pretty great partnership.

Getting started is easy

As a business, there are many benefits to creating a fund. Join other local businesses that have chosen the Victoria Foundation as their partner in philanthropy.

As a business fundholder, the Victoria Foundation will:

• Create a fund in your company’s name.
• Pool the gifts to your fund and invest them in our common trust to reduce risk and increase returns.
• Take care of all “back office” functions, including accepting gifts (online, securities, cheques, estate planning), receipting donations, preparing thank you letters to donors and reporting to you through fund statements.
• Help you to choose and grant to any registered Canadian charity of your choice.
• Ensure impact stewardship reports are received from grant recipients and shared with you.
• Help you and your staff learn about community needs and opportunities.
• Help to raise awareness about your philanthropy and the collective impact of your support, both with the public and with your employees.

If you would like to make a donation to your fund, find your fund in the Donor Advised Funds list on the Make a Donation page.
