How Programs are Funded
Traditionally, the Foundation has relied almost exclusively on donations from members of the Canadian Association of General Surgeons, and we hope to be able to continue to count on members’ generosity. However, the Foundation is expanding its fundraising outreach to include other foundations, charities, philanthropists, industry, and the public.
​
All proposed projects will be profiled for donors in our list of fundraising programs. Grants are then awarded once the required funds have been raised. It is anticipated that project leads will assist in the Foundation’s fundraising efforts by providing testimonials and helping develop project briefs that can be shared with prospective donors.
