The Citizens’ Agenda Fund
Twelve years strong and continuing to grow

The Council of Canadians is sustained by the volunteer energy and financial assistance of our members across Canada and around the world. We do not accept contributions from governments or corporations. The generosity of ordinary people ensures our research, public education and campaigning remain proudly independent.

Progressive policies on clean water, fair trade, energy security and public health care will not come about overnight. Achieving such profound change demands years of active public engagement from informed and committed citizens. And sustaining this work over the long term requires considerable funding.

To meet this need, the Council established the Citizens’ Agenda Fund (CAF). Leadership-level donations from CAF members enable the Council to broaden our research capacity, develop far-reaching public education strategies, and expand our cross-Canada network of local chapters. CAF initiatives such as these play a vital role in strengthening the effectiveness of the Council’s current and long-range work.

The Council of Canadians gives special thanks and recognition to our CAF members for their extraordinary support in 2007.
