A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple and flexible way to support charitable giving in Canada.

Through programs like The Private Giving Foundation, individuals, families, or organizations can make a donation into a dedicated fund, receive an immediate tax receipt, and then recommend how and when those funds are distributed to registered charities over time.

We envision a world where people and the planet thrive in perfect harmony.

Ancestors of Tomorrow (AOT) promotes a more harmonious and interconnected world. We strive to promote a regenerative future and drive meaningful change, benefiting families and communities worldwide.

Ancestors of Tomorrow (AOT) champions initiatives that adopt a regenerative approach to address challenges related to People and Culture, Education and Research, and Land Stewardship.

Our fund operates with holistic thinking and invests in education, research, and agricultural practices that generate a positive net impact on people and the planet. Guided by global frameworks for regeneration, we focus on fostering harmony and resilience in social and environmental systems.

People & Culture

We invest in underserved communities to bridge gaps in access to resources, empower individuals and organizations through knowledge transfer, and promote regenerative travel practices that enrich local environments and cultures.

Education & Research

To advance regenerative solutions, our education and research pillar supports initiatives that focus on material innovation, regenerative entrepreneurship, and environmental and health solutions.

Land Stewardship

With deep reverence for the land, we invest in initiatives that promote regenerative agricultural practices and reforestation to help mitigate climate change and improve biodiversity.

There are five core values at the heart of our mission that we proudly embrace and uphold in everything we do:

• Heart-Led

• Integrity

• Education

• Collaboration

• Innovation

We are committed to transparency and accountability. Follow us on LinkedIn and Instagram for updates on our initiatives and partners.

Ancestors of Tomorrow (AOT) takes the issue of greenwashing very seriously. We evaluate potential partners against strict criteria, including independent environmental and social audits, certifications, and demonstrated alignment with regenerative principles. Regular monitoring and impact assessments ensure ongoing accountability.
