We can turn every dollar you donate to CDF into four. This money goes directly to our projects.

For every dollar CDF allocates to international development,  at least three dollars is leveraged from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). This powerful gift matching program makes donations go further, and ensures project stability and continuity.

CDF provides an important link through which Canadian support is channelled to the sustainable development of credit unions and co-operatives in less developed countries, and innovative small-scale co-operative ventures in Canadian communities.

CDF is a living symbol of the principle of co-operation among co-operatives. It brings co-operatives from every region and sector together around a common cause, and through CDF, Canadian organizations reach out to co-operatives in the developing world.

The Co-operative Development Foundation of Canada working through the Canadian Co-operative Association channels the generosity of its donors directly into the hands of impoverished people throughout the Developing World.  Every donation counts.
