Charitable Registration Successful!

It is with great pleasure that I announce that the Momentum Foundation has received it's charitable number from the Government of Canada.  

This represents the culmination of two years of effort.  It hasn't been non-stop effort as this has been a part-time project for me - but it has been difficult at times.  There was the time I was told by a tax lawyer "I don't think this will get approved", there was/is still a battle with another lawyer over billing that is (in my opinion) ridiculous.

Finally, I was referred to Nicole Todosichuk at Legacy Tax + Trust Lawyers.  She kept things simple, billed fairly and got the job done with very little hassle.  If only I had met her earlier in the process....  oh well....  Thanks Nicole!

The end of this phase signals the beginning of the next phase.  The real BEGINNING.  We will be working on a launch plan for Momentum.  I hope to have an event planned to mark the birth of the foundation in the next few months.

Please subscribe (using the box at the top of the column on the left) to receive regular updates on progress and Momentum news of all sorts.

Thank you to everyone who has helped Momentum reach this point - it is just the beginning, but it took the efforts of many to get here.
