Maximum Benefit With Minimal Taxes
If you are interested in creating a charity and all or most of your capital is contributed by one person, you may wish to consider forming a private foundation or participate in a public foundation. In order to legally form and fund a private foundation in Canada or to participate in a public foundation, the foundation must be recognized by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) as a registered charity. At Chancery Chambers, we offer more than 40 years of experience in the area of charities and private foundations.
Our lawyers are familiar with effective strategies useful to structure your foundation for maximum benefit, with minimal taxes.
Many people overlook the tax effectiveness of doing their charitable giving to their own foundation. The funds still go to good works, but in a more favourable and effective manner under your control.
