Charitable Status

Project Maddie is in the process of applying for registered charitable status with Canada Revenue Agency.  Among other things, this means that people who make monetary donations to Project Maddie will receive tax receipts!  The CRA application/decision process takes 6-18 months.

This is a big undertaking in terms of the actual application process and the cost involved.  Project Maddie will need to become a legal entity (this involves a fee) and hire both a lawyer and accountant.

This also presents an opportunity for people to get more involved with Project Maddie because we will need passionate, committed volunteers who share our vision to join Project Maddie's executive team.

If you've considered supporting Project Maddie or getting involved now is the time!  Please e-mail us at projectmaddie at gmail dot com
