2026 Philanthropic Foundations Canada National Conference

The Philanthropic Foundations Canada (PFC) National Conference brings together non-profits, funders, government officials and researchers across the country to discuss challenges, opportunities and emerging issues shaping the philanthropic landscape, including caregiving.

We’re pleased to have our executive director, Liv Mendelsohn, speaking at Health as Community Infrastructure: A High Impact Opportunity for Philanthropy, an interactive session that invites philanthropic organizations to explore caregiving and community health as essential social infrastructure. Drawing on national research, funder experience, and systems‑level perspectives, the session examines why current approaches are falling short and how philanthropy can play a role in building a brighter future of care in Canada.
