The Global Relief Navigator
CAF America’s Global Relief Navigator provides donors with a real time map of partners responding to current crises, or strengthening disaster prepardeness, that they can safely give to.
Work with CAF Canada
As an International Project Fund (IPF) sponsor, CAF Canada offers giving solutions that can integrate into your clients’ planned giving strategies—on a global scale.
Any IPF at CAF Canada can be invested to maximize the impact of our donors’ charitable contributions. We allow donors to choose from a number of vetted investment portfolios, and we offer the option to restrict an investment policy to ESG-aligned assets.
Give to a foreign project from an existing IPF
If your client has an existing IPF, they can direct funds to global charities using our International Project Gift option. Some IPFs may also already have relationships with CAF Canada that may offer privileged fee rates.
Together with our partners at CAF America, we maintain a database of 3,000+ pre-approved charity partners in over 100 countries. When you donate through our trusted network, your donations will go further to fund impactful projects.
