Our mission
About the Foundation
Play On! Canada Foundation mobilizes charitable giving to support qualified donees that expand access to play, strengthen children and youth, promote well-being, and bring communities together across Canada.
Our charitable purpose
The Foundation receives charitable donations and provides grants to qualified donees.
Qualified donees are organizations that may receive gifts from registered charities under the Income Tax Act (Canada). They include registered charities, municipalities in Canada, and certain other public bodies.
Play On! Canada
Connected by a belief in the power of play
Play On! Canada Foundation and Play On! Canada share a commitment to strengthening communities through play. The two organizations are affiliated but are separately incorporated and governed.
The Foundation does not operate Play On! events. Donations are received by the Foundation, and its Board awards grants only to qualified donees in accordance with the Foundation’s charitable purpose and Canadian charity law.
