Narrative for Canadian Fundraising

AFP Canada has developed a Narrative for Canadian Fundraising which can serve as a toolkit for fundraisers as they engage in discussions about the value and impact of fundraising and philanthropy. Revisions in 2022 placed specific emphasis on equity and justice, as well as the devastating legacy colonization has had—and continues to have—on Indigenous communities.
