A key element of LIFT’s model is our partner network, which complements the expertise of the LIFT team by providing low-cost and pro bono services. SPOs in our portfolio gain exposure to leading businesses, service providers and other experts from across Canada they would not otherwise have had the opportunity to utilize.
The individuals, companies, governments and foundations that provide philanthropic investments to LIFT are supporting our mission to strengthen social purpose organizations. Their contributions allow us to invest in proven social purpose organizations to help them strengthen their operations and increase their impact across Canada.
We thank the following individuals and organizations for their generous financial support, which is helping us catalyze social change across the country.
