Mark your calendar: The 2026 BMO Employee Giving campaign runs from December 1 to 18, 2026.

This year will be the 16^th BMO Employee Giving campaign. Thanks to the generosity of employees and retirees like you, our 2025 campaign raised more than $36 million to support thousands of charities in the communities we serve across Canada and the United States.

Helping communities thrive is at the heart of BMO’s Purpose, to Boldy Grow the Good in business and life. Together we support organizations that deliver vital services and create opportunities for individuals and families.

As a valued member of our BMO retiree community, your continued generosity helps create positive change where it is needed most.  We hope you’ll consider taking part again this year. 

How to participate in 2026: This year, we have streamlined the donation process for retirees. Retirees in Canada and the U.S. will now report their donations directly to BMO, rather than using a United Way donation portal.  

If you’d like your donation to be included in BMO’s 2026 campaign results, please complete the two simple steps below. 

Step 1: Make your donation. Choose any registered charity or non-profit organization you’d ike to support and make your donation by December 19, 2026. We encourage a gift to our strategic partner, the United Way.

Step 2: Tell us about your donation. After making your donation, complete the 2026 Employee Giving campaign form below and share the required donation details with us.

You do not need to upload a tax receipt when you submit the form. You will be asked to complete a short attestation, and BMO may request at a later date, supporting documentation such as a tax receipt, for audit, governance, or compliance purposes.

To ensure your donation can be included in the campaign results, please complete the form after making your donation and double-check that all donation details are accurate. If the form is incomplete or the details are incorrect, we may not be able to count your donation toward the campaign.
