Your gift - be it large or small - will give momentum to Canadian social democracy for years to come. As Tommy Douglas famously said "Courage my friends, 'tis not too late to build a better world". 

Since 1971, with Tommy as its first president, the DCF and its contributors (people just like you) have been committed to promoting education and research in social democracy in Canada. 

2011 marked the 40th Anniversary of the DCF. From 1971 until his passing in 1986, it would have been Tommy asking you to support the DCF. Today as members of Tommy's Team, we are asking you to continue that which he put his heart and soul into - the more that you can give, the larger the grant requests we can collectively give out.
