GRANTS

Working as a "donor advised fund," CarbonFlip distributes grants through the Makeway Foundation. This enables it to issue tax receipts to donors and to donate more than $50,000 per year to organizations working in the field of climate action. Only Canadian registered charities can receive grants from CarbonFlip. However, in many cases, eligible non-profit organizations can work with a registered charity.

FOCUS

Priority is given to projects that contribute measurably to reducing emissions as ranked by drawdown.org and the United Nations' Six Sector Solution.
