Build Generosity with Us

Behind the Hougen Block Project is Celebrate Foundation, a registered charitable foundation in Canada that streamlines giving to five designated Charities.

Why Donate Through Celebrate Foundation?

Donating through Celebrate Foundation automatically increases your impact.

Because of the particular financial structure of the Hougen Block, income received from the 8 leaseholds within the building allows us to “top up” each amount given. In other words, a portion of your donation (to one of the five designated charities) is automatically matched by Celebrate Foundation, increasing your impact!
