     Announcing the Canada Revenue Agency’s Charities Directorate
Charities Information Sessions

Every year, staff from the Canada Revenue Agency’s Charities Directorate visit communities across the country to provide information sessions for registered charities.  This year, the Charities Information Sessions in Manitoba will be held in June. 

The Charities Information Sessions cover a number of topics and are quite informative.  They are aimed at everyone working for, or with, a charity — whether as a volunteer, a Treasurer, a Board Member, or an officer of the charity.  The topics touch on some of the daily issues and legal requirements faced by charities.  All those attending will find something of interest to them.

This is also a great opportunity to meet staff from the Charities Directorate to ask questions and to share information with other charities.

The sessions are free and we encourage all charities to send representatives.  Don’t miss out on this great opportunity.  If you are interested in registering or in finding out more about the Charities Information Sessions, go to
