Donor Due Diligence Process FAQs

Why does CAF Canada perform due diligence on donors?

CAF Canada maintains best practices in due diligence of our donors and charities in order to guarantee regulatory compliance with U.S. federal regulations and “Know Your Customer” practices regulating anti-money laundering, anti-bribery, and counter-terrorist financing. As an intermediary grantmaker, adherence to these standards requires that we know both our donor and charity partners, and we achieve this in part through the collection of and review of information about our donors.

What information does CAF Canada need in order to complete due diligence?

The information required depends upon whether you are an individual or a corporate donor and also depends upon the amount of your charitable contribution to CAF Canada. The online form you were sent to complete this process includes the entire questionnaire on one page, so you can review the link we sent you to see if you have any questions about the individual items you will be asked to submit.

What should I do if I am unable to provide part of the information that is requested?

Please contact us either through the contact you’re currently working with at CAF Canada, via email to privacy@cafcanada.ca, or by phone 202-793-2232. In this outreach, please explain what you cannot provide and the reason you cannot provide it, and we will work with you to determine if there is alternative information we can collect or what we would need to successfully complete our due diligence process.
