RC5. How can I find out if my organization is a registered charity?

You can

• call the Charities Directorate of the Canada Revenue Agency at 1-800-267-2384 (English) or 1-888-892-5667 (bilingual) and speak to an agent
  
  or


• search the CRA's Charity Registry.

 

You may also be able to find this information
