Endowment Fund
To help the RCA achieve sustainable financial operations, please consider making a donation to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts Endowment Fund, managed by the Ottawa Community Foundation. Categories of donation are ‘endowed’, and ‘flow-through’, described as follows:
Endowed donations: These donations are invested and only the earnings generated through that investment are distributed in the form of grants. You can be confident your donation will give for many more years to come.
Flow-through donations: These donations are not invested in our investment pool to generate annual earnings. They can be granted out immediately on the advice/direction of the donor.
Please consider giving to the RCA:
—RCA Trust
Associated with the RCA are two trust funds, the RCA Trust and the CD Howe Trust. They are overseen by five trustees who assure that the funds are distributed as per the terms of the trusts and administered according to Canadian tax laws for non-profit organizations.
The RCA Trust is made up of past and ongoing donations by various artists and supporters of the arts. The funds generated by the RCA Trust are generally awarded to permanent regional art galleries across the country to acquire Canadian art to be exhibited to the public, as well as for special art projects. The CD Howe Trust is a single donation with its generated income awarded annually, as scholarships, to promising art and architecture students in Canada. The awards are judged and administered by the RCA.
