When Will We Have Enough Funds to Get Started? #

At a glance #

  • Raise at least 50% of your estimated budget.
  • Submit Proof of Funds with your Settlement Plan.
  • Different evidence may be required depending on how your funds are held.

Proof of Funds is required before matching
Before your group can be matched with a newcomer household, you must submit Proof of Funds showing that you have raised at least 50% of your estimated budget, together with your Settlement Plan.

Acceptable evidence #

  • A bank statement showing the required funds. #

  • If funds are held by an affiliated community organisation, a letter confirming the amount reserved for your group’s participation. #

  • If fundraising through GiveEasy, your fundraising page may be used as Proof of Funds, provided your group also has an active bank account ready to receive the funds when they are released by CRSA. #


GiveEasy #

More information about fundraising through GiveEasy is available in Section 5 of this guidebook.


“Providing Proof of Funds demonstrates that your group is financially prepared to support a newcomer household.”
