TD Bank Group (TD) has announced a five-year, C$5 million ($3.7 million) leadership gift to fundraising campaign of the Future Generations Foundation, formerly known as the National Indian Brotherhood Trust Fund.

The foundation’s Beyond Reconciliation campaign aims to raise $100 million to help bring healing, reconciliation, knowledge building, and empowerment to Indigenous communities across Canada. The funds raised will support Indigenous organizations, groups, and individuals delivering programs focused on culture, language, the restoration of land-based traditional knowledge, healing, reconciliation, education, and employment. In addition to the donation from TD, group president and CEO Bharat Masrani has also committed to support the campaign directly.

“We are very proud to support the Beyond Reconciliation Campaign,” said TD vice president of Indigenous Banking Group Doris Bear. “This is an important solution-focused campaign that will help drive positive outcomes for Indigenous individuals and communities. I hope many companies across Canada will answer the call and help the Future Generations Foundation achieve their goal.”
