Canada-Israel Chamber of Commerce

Donation Policy

Understanding our donation terms and commitment to transparency

All Donations Are Final

The Canada-Israel Chamber of Commerce greatly appreciates your generous support. All donations made to our organization are considered final and non-refundable. By completing a donation, you acknowledge and agree to this policy.

We implement this policy to ensure that contributions are used immediately and effectively to support our mission of fostering bilateral trade relationships, organizing networking events, and providing valuable resources to our business community.

Why Donations Are Non-Refundable

When you make a donation, your contribution is immediately allocated to support our ongoing programs and initiatives, including:

  • Organizing trade missions connecting Canadian and Israeli businesses
  • Hosting networking events, conferences, and business forums
  • Providing market intelligence and business resources to members
  • Advocating for stronger bilateral trade policies
  • Supporting entrepreneurs and startups in both countries

Because these funds are deployed immediately to create value for our business community, we are unable to process refund requests.

Secure Payment Processing

All donations are processed securely through Stripe, a leading payment processor trusted by millions of businesses worldwide. We never store your complete credit card information on our servers.

Your payment information is encrypted and transmitted securely using industry-standard SSL technology. You will receive an immediate email confirmation of your donation with transaction details for your records.

Important: Please review your donation amount carefully before completing your payment. If you accidentally enter an incorrect amount, please contact us immediately at the email address below before the transaction is processed.

Tax Receipt Information

The Canada-Israel Chamber of Commerce is not a registered charity under the Income Tax Act. As such, donations to our organization are not eligible for charitable tax receipts or tax deductions.

However, your generous contribution directly supports our mission to strengthen economic ties between Canada and Israel, creating valuable opportunities for businesses in both nations.

Exceptional Circumstances

While our standard policy is that all donations are final, we understand that exceptional circumstances may arise, such as:

  • Duplicate charges due to technical errors
  • Unauthorized transactions
  • Processing errors resulting in incorrect amounts

If you believe such an error has occurred, please contact us immediately. We will review your case and work with you to resolve the issue fairly and promptly.
