History and Purpose

The Keri Chase Foundation was formed as a non-incorporated registered charity under Section 149(1)(f) of the Income Tax Act and received its registration number effective February 21, 2002.  The effective date of operations is January 1, 2002.  Our Registered Charitable Organization Number is 86547 5719 RR0001.

This registered Charitable Foundation was formed in memory of Keri Coleen Chase, who died in a tragic auto accident on November 24, 2001.  Keri was born in Thunder Bay and through her short life of 42 years was forever salvaging injured and stray animals and birds of every description and either finding them homes, or returning them to the wild from which they came.  At the age of 14, she had her first colt to save and since then, it has been a steady stream of animals that needed her, and her undemanding love.  Her love of animals has been an inspiration to everyone that knew her.

The purpose of the Foundation is to build a fund, the income from which will be used to provide financial assistance to qualified donees providing care and shelter to stray, lost and injured domestic animals, birds and wildlife.  The Trustees would like to build a fund over the next number of years in order to impact on a future projects of animal welfare in the name of the Foundation.  The Foundation’s goals since inception was to donate annually or bi-annually about 1/3 of its fund raising and retain 2/3 of the fundraising to create a long term investment, the income from which will be used to support animal welfare organizations in the future and to keep the memory of Keri Chase alive.
