Are you looking to expand your foundation’s geographic reach or program focus, and looking for help to identify innovative charities?

Is the administration of your family foundation leaving you little time to do what you enjoy – engaging with and supporting charities?

Consider asking Tides to undertake some of your responsibilities or even convert your private foundation into an easy-to-manage Charitable Giving Fund. Working together to assess your philanthropic needs, we can determine how to best help you strengthen and streamline your giving, increase your impact, and minimize costs and administrative challenges. We offer a wide range of flexible support services and strategic counsel to family and private foundations in both Canada and the United States.

Program Development and Grantmaking Counsel

For foundations looking to extend their reach into a new geographic area or a new issue area, our in-depth knowledge of both the philanthropic community and the grantee universe will provide you with the resources you need to build a high-impact, tailored grantmaking strategy.

Foundation Management and Administrative Services

We offer support with the day-to-day administrative details of running your philanthropic program, and well as with long-term organizational development.

International Giving Services

Through our relationship with Tides Foundation in the US, Tides can assist other Canadian foundations in making grant recommendations to US or international charities.

Charitable Giving Funds

If you are considering converting your foundation into an easy-to-manage Charitable Giving Fund here at Tides please contact us to discuss your options.
