Be the charity of choice
Charities and foundations play a vital role in Canada by fostering a sense of community, raising awareness of critical issues that impact us all, and inviting donors to make a meaningful impact. All registered charities—private, public, and charitable foundations—must operate through a well-established business plan, board, and governance structure. With competition for funding increasing, demonstrating that your operations are evolving with the latest business trends tells donors that their funding will be thoughtfully and transparently managed, measured, and appropriately dispersed. Falling behind is not an option.
BDO provides expert guidance on all the elements that help charities and foundations remain relevant—including talent acquisition, improving workflows, database integrity, data analytics in fundraising programs, tax rules, digital transformation, cybersecurity, and more. We can help you demonstrate how forward-thinking and efficient your charity really is, helping to secure a priority position with your donors.
