ATTENTION CANADIAN DONORS and TYPHOON HAIYAN FUNDRAISING ORGANIZATIONS: To be counted for the purposes of the Typhoon Haiyan Relief Fund, donations from individual Canadians may not exceed $100,000 per individual and must be: monetary in nature; made to a registered Canadian charity that is receiving donations in response to the impact of Typhoon Haiyan; specifically earmarked for response to the impact of Typhoon Haiyan; and, be made between November 9 and December 9, 2013. To ensure that donations are eligible for the matching program, you should ensure that: the donation complies with the conditions outlined above; the registered charity receiving the donation will be using the funds in response to the humanitarian crisis related to the impact of Typhoon Haiyan; and, the registered charity receiving the donation will be declaring it to DFATD. It is up to the registered Canadian charity to certify, through a declaration form (to be made available on the DFATD web site), that the donations declared are eligible. Registered Canadian charities are under no obligation to declare donations to DFATD if they are not satisfied that they meet eligibility requirements. Registered charities declaring eligible donations must complete the declaration form. Forms must be received by DFATD on or before December 23, 2013 for donations to be counted towards the size of the relief fund. international.gc.ca/media/dev/news-communiques/2013/11/10a.aspx?lang=eng
