To stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by: ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable; promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption; and conserving the world’s biological diversity
All our conservation results are driven through the work of our major Conservation programs – Arctic, Freshwater, Oceans, Nature and Communities. The programs are designed to build practices that result in healthy habitats and species at the same time as ensuring community and economic benefits for long lasting sustainability. We work with corporate, government, universities, community leaders, other non-governmental organizations and First Nations and Inuit partners and associates.
Each project has a series of milestones against which progress to the planned conservation outcomes, which are generally long term in nature, are measured. In addition, in the current year and as part of our five year planning process, we have developed economic and species measures for each significant project, against which progress will be measured going forward. Last year, in most areas, the planned progress was made against the longer term project plans and some projects successfully completed, such as the successful announcement of the BC Water Act, our oil spill trajectory modelling, and the launch of the new “Go Wild’ program. As a transition year to a new plan, work on some projects is being completed and the planning for new areas commenced. For example, we were successfully part of the Marine Planning Process in BC, completed earlier this year.

The Calgary Foundation for community, forever – to nurture a great community that supports all people, where a strong charitable sector addresses the community needs now and into the future.
To achieve this mission, the Calgary Foundation: Builds and shares knowledge of the community, its needs and opportunities; inspires philanthropy and matches donors with the needs about which they care deeply; engages citizens in community building; builds a permanent endowment to address the needs of today and the needs of tomorrow that we cannot yet see; and, strengthens charities in all parts of the charitable sector
The Calgary Foundation measures its effectiveness through donor and citizen surveys, community consultations, the amount of funds granted to charities and impact reports from charities on impact of these grants. The organization also tracks the number of citizens touched by our grassroots granting programs; the number of participants in community engagement activities and growth of the endowment both by new contributions and market returns
Last year, the Calgary Foundation received $59.9 million in new gifts and granted $47.3 million to over 900 charitable organizations — the asset base is currently at $834.4 million. Fund founders indicated strong satisfaction with the Foundation. The respondents cited the key strengths to be community impact, contribution to donors’ impact and community leadership. Since 2012, 14,000 citizens have taken part in Neighbour Grants-supported projects across Calgary and area, organized by over 300 volunteers.

UNICEF’s mission is to reach every child and ensure their well-being, no matter where they are in the world. We are committed to take action, save, rehabilitate and watch over children, especially the most vulnerable. As part of the UN, we’re active in more countries and have saved more children’s lives than any other humanitarian organization.
With a focus on child survival and well-being, UNICEF has health, education and protection programs across the globe reaching vulnerable and marginalized children, including hundreds of millions in conflict zones. We provide 40% of the world’s children with vaccinations, promote education and child protection activities and policies to ensure every child is healthy, safe, educated and has opportunities to thrive.
We measure progress against the Millennium Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2000 and publish annual reports on the metrics for child well-being. Our data is used by the UN, leading NGOs and governments to assess and strategically implement programs that save children’s lives and allow them to thrive.
With the work of UNICEF and its partners, significant progress has been made on child survival and well-being. As the global data leader, we measure improvements for children. In 1990, 12.7 million children under age five died of preventable causes. By 2014 it was down to 5.9 million children. In 2000, Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus was a fatal disease for babies in 59 countries. With the work of UNICEF and partners in immunizing mothers, today the disease has been eliminated in 38 countries.

We invest in the strength of women and the dreams of girls. The Canadian Women’s Foundation raises money to end violence against women, move women out of poverty and build strong resilient girls through funding, researching and promoting best practices. We are a leading voice for women in Canada.
We fund life-changing programs designed to help women move out of poverty. Through these unique programs, we help women learn a skilled trade, start a small business, or get work experience. We also fund programs that help women move into confidence. These programs engage their body, mind, and spirit, and at-risk girls can explore science and technology.
All our programs have individual evaluations that measure the impact our foundation-funded activities have on ending violence against women, moving women out of poverty and building strong resilient girls.
Based on the responses of program participants and the programs outcomes, our activities had a significant impact on helping stop the violence against women and ending poverty and empowering girls by teaching them how to recognize and prevent abusive relationships.

While contributions were down grants were up. As a result, gross ROI was lower than the previous year but were better when compared to the market the Foundation performed better. The Foundation’s asset base also grew. as did the number of new funds and will intentions. Student recipients and total dollars awarded both increased.

To preserve and strengthen the quality of Jewish life and engagement in Montreal, Israel and the world by caring for the vulnerable, strengthening Jewish identity, and advancing our communal interests.
We raise the funds, through an annual campaign (Combined Jewish Appeal) and planned giving and endowments, and then allocate those funds strategically to organizations that deliver the programs/activities to further our mission.
In fundraising, we measure total dollars raised in each category of giving by comparison with previous years, donor penetration including retention of existing donors and engagement of new donors, increases in corporate sponsorship to offset fundraising costs and ensure the most cost-effective fundraising operation. In allocations we measure the annual impact achieved by the organizations we fund, and the overall governance, management and evaluation effectiveness of each funded organization.
We had an exceptional fundraising year, raising $36.2 million, $5 million in one-time free gifts, $3.3 million in one-time gifts designated to local and Israel-based projects, and $1.6 million for the Israel Relief Fund, from over 16,000 donors. We’ve also adopted a five-year strategic plan for the organization to grow our total financial resources and strengthen our ability to fulfill our mission.

Supporting cancer research programs that are deemed a priority by our partner the BC Cancer Agency. Emboldened by the courage of cancer patients, the brilliance of our clinicians and researchers and the hope and optimism of our donors, the BC Cancer Foundation invests in areas that hold the greatest promise and initiatives that expand our understanding of cancer on a daily basis.

The Canadian Cancer Society is a national, community-based organization of volunteers and staff whose mission is the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life of people living with cancer.
The Canadian Cancer Society funds the most promising cancer research that discovers new ways to better prevent, detect, treat and beat cancer. We’re here for all Canadians living with cancer and provide financial, emotional and practical support. And, knowing that about half of all cancers can be prevented, the Society is a leader in cancer prevention as we advocate for healthy public policies and educate Canadians on the steps they can take to reduce their risk of developing cancer.
“The Canadian Cancer Society has a Nationwide Strategic Plan 2010-2015 as well as the annually created Alberta/NWT Division’s Planning for Results Business Plan, which outlines the following priorities:
reduce cancer incidence rates
reduce cancer mortality rates
enhance quality of life for people living with and beyond cancer”
We were successful. The range of work we do and the nature of programs and collaborative initiatives will vary both as to timing and extent.
