The Canadian Directory to Foundations & Corporations is Canada’s largest and most accurate bilingual fundraising database. We have more than 3,100 foundation listings, more than 150 corporations and over 90,000 indexed grants.

The Directory is used by almost every successful fundraiser in the country. Get access to the specific information you need without wading through unnecessary or hard-to-find data. Categories are clearly designed for easy access to every grantmaker’s funding interests as well as their listed grants. Conveniently searchable categories represent every type of charitable activity from Arts to Zoos.

As the Directory is updated every week, you benefit from the latest information available. In addition, our Directory team thoroughly reviews tax filings of foundations from the Canada Revenue Agency. From there, we go above and beyond by contacting all 3,100 foundations so they can augment their information. From the feedback we receive from foundations, apparently we are the only directory of its kind who contacts foundations directly for updates.

No other Directory is this accurate, this current and this affordable. With annual subscriptions starting at $375, the Directory’s resources are within reach for organizations of every size. Sign up for a two-year subscription and save $50 off your second year. Subscribers also receive Directory Update, a quarterly e-newsletter that alerts users to improvements and tips and tools to get the most out of the database.

Imagine Canada members save even more! Members save $100 off a one-year subscription and $250 off a two-year subscription. It’s just one of the many benefits of membership.
