Why create a fund

Give According to Your Circumstances

Creating a fund with the Foundation of Greater Montréal is an advantageous alternative to setting up a private foundation, which involves considerable expense and lengthy legal and administrative procedures.

By comparison, FGM’s flexible business model and unique cost structure allow you to achieve the same tax and philanthropic goals for a fraction of the time and cost. Our approach, simplified yet personalized, meets all your needs under one roof.

If you have questions or would like to start a conversation about creating a fund or how the FGM can support your philanthropic project, contact us today!

FGM’s status as a community foundation allows it to keep administrative fees among the lowest on the market. Pooling the assets of our hundreds of fund creators makes it possible to share resources and achieve substantial savings. This benefits the many charitable organizations that can access our services at a reduced cost, and, in turn, the community as a whole. In other words, when you entrust your donations to the Foundation of Greater Montréal, you’re making a double philanthropic gesture.

FGM also offers competitive returns, thanks in particular to the work of the members of its investment expert committee, who oversee the managers entrusted with the assets held in the Foundation’s Investment Fund (FIFGM). The Foundation is also equipped with one of the most advanced responsible investment strategies in Canada. Your donations can grow in a way that is both optimal and sustainable, amplifying their long-term impact.

Finally, thanks to its in-depth knowledge of the philanthropic sector and the ecosystem of charitable organizations in Greater Montréal, FGM will ensure that the income generated by your donations concretely supports the causes you have chosen, in the most effective way possible. You’ll be able to see the real, on-the-ground effect of your generosity.
