The United Way of Greater Toronto
26 Wellington St. East, 11th floor
If your organization has been reluctant to speak to politicians,
write policy papers or get involved in public debates about important
issues for fear of "crossing the line" with the CRA, this workshop is for
you.
We will be in Toronto in early June to offer 2 sessions. We hope you can
join us!
To register for the June 1st session, please visit:

To register for the June 3rd session, please visit:

This workshop is generously hosted by the United Way of Greater Toronto.
What you will learn:
what your charity can and can't do within the new Canada
Revenue Agency (CRA) guidelines on "political activities"
how to apply these guidelines to real-life scenarios
how to get (more) involved in shaping the policies that affect
your organization's ability to deliver service and work effectively in your
community
Includes lunch and reference materials.
