Charitable Contributions

Everything you need to know about our charitable donation request process.

What types of donations do we fund?

Monetary Support or In-Kind Donations:

Ipsen may provide a donation to a specific initiative or project. These may only be provided to not-for-profit organizations and registered charities involved in conducting activities such as charitable, community, educational, humanitarian, health and philanthropic efforts. Ipsen does not control nor influence the initiatives supported by these donations.

To be considered, you must complete an Ipsen Grants and Donations intake form, which you may obtain by contacting us at GrantsDonationsCanada@ipsen.com. This ensures that Ipsen has all the required documentation and information needed for review. Along with completion of this form, you must also provide the following:

  • A description of your organization, charitable mission and why it is important
  • The relationship, if any, of your organization to Ipsen

  • A description of any prior donations made by Ipsen to the organization and how they were used
  • The number of donors, other than Ipsen, that are being approached to support the request
