Our selection criteria are:
We can help your citizen’s group incorporate as a non-profit corporation, if needed.
The Legacy Fund usually matches dollar-for-dollar sums raised by the citizens’ group up to an agreed-upon amount, but we can make exceptions based on individual circumstances. Importantly, any funds raised by our partner citizens’ group – when donated through the Legacy Fund – are eligible for a tax deduction.
If the Legacy Fund adopts a proposal, we sign a simple agreement with the non-profit organization. This agreement will cover such details as funding, reporting and oversight of the case.
It’s important to note that a case might not always lead to legal action, as we also look for non-litigious solutions.
Fill out this form and we will contact you as soon as possible. Providing information that addresses some of questions raised in the section selection criteria above will strengthen your application and increase the likelihood of receiving support or funding.
