How to find information on a specific registered charity

You can use the Charities Listings on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Web site to:

  • determine whether a charity is registered under the Income Tax Act and therefore eligible to issue official donation receipts for income tax purposes
  • learn more about a charity's financial information (assets, liabilities, income, and expenditures) before making a donation
  • find out more about the activities of a registered charity
  • find out how to contact a charity
