For charities

Claim your charity's profile

Funders managing over $2.3B research charities on WellFunded. Yours already has a profile built from public CRA data. Claim it, and it speaks with your voice.

Spaces, dashes and lower case are fine. We'll take you straight to your charity's claim page.
Where to find your registration number

It's on your official CRA documents or the Canada Revenue Agency's website — a 15-character identifier like 123456789RR0001.

What happens after you claim

  1. 1 Enter your charity's registration number.
  2. 2 One form creates your account and files the claim. Nothing is published until we've verified it.
  3. 3 A WellFunded team member verifies the claim, usually within one business day, and emails you a sign-in link.
  4. 4 Sign in, and the charity is yours to manage, with any WellCheck a donor has asked for waiting.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about getting started.

How does WellFunded work?

Donor-advised funds, wealth advisors and foundations use WellFunded to find, research and fund Canadian charities. Instead of rewriting the same proposal for every funder, you complete one profile and it's ready for all of them. Fill in a few short sections and upload your annual report, and we'll turn it into an impact page funders can find by cause, location and program.

Do I need to apply for funding?

No. Funders search WellFunded for charities that match what they want to support, and your profile is what they find. When a funder wants to know more, you'll hear from us. Some funders also post Giving Opportunities for a specific focus, and you can respond to those with the profile you've already built.

What does it cost?

WellFunded is free for charities. We don't charge transaction fees, and we never take a cut of any gift. Funders pay to use the platform.

Who sees my profile?

Donor-advised funds, advisors and foundations using WellFunded to research charities. Together they manage over $2.3B in charitable assets. WellFunded isn't open to the general public.

What is a WellCheck?

When a funder is seriously considering your charity, they may ask for a WellCheck. It's a short set of questions plus a few documents, reviewed alongside your audited financials and CRA filings. We present findings, not verdicts: no scores and no rankings. Do it once, and it's ready for every funder who asks after that.

Is my information secure?

Yes. Your data stays in Canada, and we never sell it. See our privacy policy for details.

Is this legitimate?

WellFunded is a Canadian company, built in B.C. by the team behind one of Canada's first online donor-advised funds. If you'd like to meet us first, book a small group session with Jeff, our co-founder and CEO.
