ABOUT JOHN BROMLEY

I facilitate benevolence. I provide strategic advice about financing and organizational structure to local, national and international charities, foundations, non-profits, private and public companies. I also develop web-based, software platforms that encourage mass awareness of and participation in the benevolent sector. Today, I do this exclusively through Charitable Impact. I’ve always been around charity in one way or another, mostly because of my dad, Blake Bromley, who’s one of the world’s leading charity lawyers. So after university and a few years working in corporate finance at RBC Capital Markets and PricewaterhouseCoopers, I joined Blake, and we started Benefic Group to fill the void in specialized expertise in charity law, strategy and policy in Canada. Benefic has worked with hundreds of local and international donors, charities, foundations, governments, non-profits and for-profits to provide strategic and legal advice, and arrange several billion dollars in giving. In recent years, I’ve shifted my focus to how we use technology, social media and internet culture to improve charity. In how the internet is starting to change the way people interact with, transact with and learn about charity. And in working to shape charity’s entry into online culture, so that technology improves, and doesn’t harm charity by increasing public access and decreasing charity’s costs.Specialties: Strategy, structure, financing and advocacy for the benevolent sector, online and offline.
