Canadian donations

Whether you’re a Canadian making a donation or donating to a Canadian fundraiser, you may be asked to verify your identity to ensure compliance with Canadian laws and financial regulations.

When donating, you may be asked to provide the following information:

• Full, legal name
• Date of birth
• Occupation
• Physical address
• Payment information

If we aren’t able to verify your identity from the information you enter, you may need to provide the following documentation:

• A government-issued ID
• A selfie

Once we’ve verified your identity, you’ll receive a donation receipt letting you know your donation was successful.

From there you can return to the fundraiser to leave Words of support or check on updates from the organiser.
