Canada’s donor-advised fund

Charitable Impact operates as a donor-advised fund. In short, this means you can manage all of your charitable giving from a single account, which we call the Impact Account.

When you add money to your Impact Account, you're actually making a donation to CHIMP: Charitable Impact Foundation (Canada), a registered charity and public foundation. It's why you get a tax receipt after adding money. The funds you add stay in your account until you decide you'd like to make a donation to a Canadian charity, support a Giving Group donation page, and give gifts that give back by sending charitable dollars to other people on Charitable Impact.

Give your way with our support

Give to the homeless, search for the best animal charities, donate to Canadian food banks, advocate for youth mental health, and give to your church, temple, mosque, or other place of worship.
