Submit a renewal application
To clarify the renewal application agenda for organizations and facilitate the treatment of applications by the Foundation team, we have produced a timeline for the submission of applications for each of the donation analysis committees.
Organizations receiving an active donation may apply for a renewal 12 months after the current donation was made (unless we advise otherwise).
If this is your case, you will receive a personalized communication from us approximately two months before the renewal application is presented to the Grants Committee.
Applications are now made directly on the Foundation’s new electronic platform.
On your first visit, you will need to create a user account by filling out the registration form.
You will receive an access code to access the renewal application process (access to which is restricted to organizations with an active grant) in our new digital platform.
IMPORTANT: An application guide has been developed to assist applicant organizations. We invite you to consult it before beginning any application process.
- Due to the many applications submitted to us and to favour follow-up visits for active donations, we cannot accept requests for meetings with applicant organizations in person. However, do not hesitate to call us to ask more specific questions or to verify your application’s compatibility with the Foundation’s interests.
- Applications received directly from departments of major institutions, such as universities, without the support of their development office, will not be considered.
A personalized communication will be sent to all organizations concerned to specify the deadline for filing their renewal application via the electronic platform.
- Your most recent audited financial statements
- Your last annual report or activity report
In 2022, the Foundation adopted an oral reporting process that revolves around a one-hour meeting to which grantees are invited during the year.
This approach is designed to encourage direct, spontaneous conversations. Beyond our grant, we want to hear about your successes, challenges, needs, learnings and so on.
We also appreciate informal follow-ups throughout the year.
Organizations receiving multi-year support are asked to provide us with their audited financial statements and annual/activity reports for each fiscal year.
You will receive a response to your renewal application within 90 business days of filing. All answers will be send by email out of respect for the environment.
Please note that donation payments are now made by direct deposit to the account. Do not forget to inform us of any changes to the account.
