Policy Statement

A registered charity and other entities that may not be qualified donees can decide to pool their resources to establish and operate a charitable program. The charity will be considered to be carrying on its own activities provided it is an active partner exercising a proportionate degree of control in the venture and that it can clearly establish that its share of responsibility is at least proportional to the level of funding it contributes to the program.
