Calgary Foundation

**About the Calgary Foundation** **Each year, Calgary Foundation flows millions of dollars to every corner of our city, supporting causes as myriad as our population. As those funds spread, our hope is that they bring something else with them – the knowledge that a city is a profound thing to share.** Calgary Foundation is an essential part of the fabric of the city. We foster partnerships and build a strong charitable sector that serves the needs of all members of the community. We inspire philanthropy and build a permanent endowment to address the current and future needs of people in our community. Our endowment earns interest each year, which flows to every corner of our city supporting causes as myriad as our citizens. By working with donors and their advisors, we design giving plans that achieve their desired charitable and financial goals. This ensures donors receive the maximum tax benefits from their gift and endowed funds receive professional investment management that seeks leading risk adjusted rates of return.
