A small foundation with a deliberate hand.
The Tivy-Harris Foundation is a Canadian private foundation based in Puslinch, Ontario. We make principled, targeted grants — choosing a focused set of organizations and supporting them with consistency rather than spreading thin.
The Foundation was established in 2025 and gives across six program areas. Much of our work is quiet and ongoing: recurring support for a handful of trusted organizations, alongside named project grants where a defined contribution can do specific, visible good.
Investment management is provided by RBC Wealth Management. Our charitable registration with the Canada Revenue Agency is currently in preparation.
We favour organizations whose model we understand and trust — those that are needs-driven, accountable, and close to the people they serve. We track each commitment by its purpose, keeping distinct grants distinct.
Our aim is not breadth but care: to give well, to a few, over time.
