Tides Canada Foundation and Sage Centre 

As a Canadian leader in strategic philanthropy, Tides Canada Foundation is

charitable giving services across Canada in the areas of environment and
social justice.  Sage Centre our sister charity is a federally registered

growing North American movement of capacity building institutions supporting
the charitable initiatives working to create healthy, vibrant, sustainable
communities. 

Founded in 2000, Tides Canada provides thought leadership and informed
counsel to its donor partners as they decide on high impact charitable
giving strategies. Understanding that each donor's goal is unique, Tides
Canada supports greater impact of its donor's charitable intentions by
providing innovative and customized services, an extensive set of practical
resources, and access to a peer learning and collaboration network of
like-minded donors operating at the nexus of social investing, social
enterprise and social change philanthropy.
