Make a Difference
Northern Policy Institute is a federally registered charity for educational purposes. We conduct practical research on issues impacting the communities where we live and work. Our vision is to have a growing, sustainable, and self-sufficient Northern Ontario.
As an organization seeking to be exclusively evidence driven, independence (especially financial independence) is key. That starts with a diverse funding base. Your support ensures we can continue to identify policy opportunities to make your community stronger, healthier, and more vibrant.
All donations will be acknowledged, and tax receipts will be issued for donations over $10.00.
