Episode 75
Episode 75 of Tales From the Trenches Tuesdays features Malcolm Burrows, a philanthropic advisor and gift planner with 34 years of experience. He leads Scotia Wealth Management’s 100-year-old private foundation services practice. Before joining Scotia he worked for three major Toronto charities from 1990 to 2004 and started his career in the arts. Malcolm is an active educator, writer, and volunteer in the charitable sector and wealth planning community.
We discuss how fundraising will change in the coming years as well as the intergenerational transfer of wealth that we are now seeing.
When I started out fundraising in 1990, about 30% of Canadians actually gave a donation and claimed it on their tax return each year. And it’s now down to below 17%. So with that collapse of the regular pool of donors the value of the donations continues to increase.
