Administration
All of CHILD's Board Directors are volunteers. Since its founding, CHILD has been governed by a working volunteer board that not only provides oversight but also manages the day-to-day operations of the foundation, with occasional help from a small group of additional volunteers and two part-time employees. CHILD utilizes employees to manage our growing administrative workload and enhance the care and communication we provide to our donors.
Financial stewardship
100% of donations received by CHILD for project work go entirely to our partner organizations in India, South Africa and Haiti. We have a minimum of administration fees, which have been covered by an outside source. All employee salaries are funded only by designated donations by specific donors who have chosen to support our work in that way.
The spending of funds is confined to agency approved projects and purchases. Each gift designated toward an approved project will be used for that project with the understanding that, when any given need has been met, or cannot be completed for any reason as determined by CHILD, designated gifts will be used where needed most.
An official Canadian donation receipt is issued for gifts where appropriate.
In Canada, registered charities can issue official donation receipts for gifts they receive. You can claim these receipts on your tax return as a tax credit (for individuals) or a tax deduction (for corporations).
