Welcome to your September edition of the Charity Law Insights.
The advent of fall is always a time of new beginnings and so it is in the charity world as well. In the coming months, we expect to see the enforcement of the new Federal corporate law for Not for Profits (and perhaps a provincial one in Ontario as well). At Drache Aptowitzer PC we are also happy to announce a new beginning as we welcome Joel Secter to our firm. Joel not only has a particular interest in the charity world but he has a distinguished background in the arts world. Please feel free to read his bio on our website and to contact him for more information. His first article in the Charity Law Insights is below.
In the coming months Adam Aptowitzer will be conducting a series of webinars and speaking at the Winnipeg conference of the Canadian Council of Christian Charities, the National meeting of the Canadian Friends of the Weizmann Institute, and the National Synod of the Anglican Network in Canada. He hopes to meet some of his readers there.
Finally, September also brings with it the Jewish holidays. DAPC wishes all of its Jewish readers and clients all of the best in the new year.
As always, your comments are welcome.
