Obligations of Registered Charities – The focus of this presentation is to highlight the responsibilities that accompany registered status such as devotion of resources to charitable purposes and activities, the issuance of tax receipts for eligible gifts, the filing of the T3010 Annual Information Return, and maintaining adequate books.

Veronica Deally – Why Volunteers Deserve Their Own Annual Report
Adam Shilling – What’s In It For Them?” Persuading Leaders and Decisions Makers
Erin Spink – Positioning Yourself as the Expert and Communicating with Impact and Confidence
