Funding Criteria
Hbc reaches out to thousands of organizations across Canada each year, helping to make a difference in the lives of millions of Canadians. From small, local charities to national bodies, our associates and vendors continuously look for ways to give back.
Our commitment is fulfilled through three core principles:
- Contributing to national and community-based organizations across Canada;
- Focusing donations on three key areas, building healthy families, creating strong communities and inspiring Canadians.
- Working with vendors, associates and customers to make a difference
Hbc welcomes requests for donations that fit within the areas of health, wellness and education; however, we receive thousands of requests each year. For this reason, the following criteria are excluding from receiving support from the Hbc Foundation.
Exclusions:
- Groups not registered by Revenue Canada as registered charitable organizations
- Individual pursuits (individuals looking for money for personal pursuits)
- Third party organizations (i.e. local schools looking to raise funds for a charity)
- Advocacy groups of a particular religious, social, political or economic point of view
- Private schools
- Travel for individuals or groups
- Groups organized outside of Canada
Please allow six to eight weeks for a reply to all requests for in-kind donations and financial support.
