Did you know that every foundation member has the right to nominate a charity for additional donations? Every year, we give extra funds away to a number of worthy charities. We are particularly interested in smaller charities for whom our small donations can make a big difference. And in charities that operate out of the communities our members live in. Do you know of a charity that is deserving of our attention (and donations)?
Nominations can take place at any time of the year but we save them up and look at them once annually, in late January of every year. Look under Supplementary Donations in the Members’ Corner drop-down menu for more details.
The Board of Directors met in late January to deliberate over the nominations from our members for supplementary donations as well as the unsolicited applications for funding from other Canadian charities.
This year’s “winners” included charities in the heritage, medical care, animal welfare, religious, educational, social welfare, mental health and environmental spheres in 11 different communities in Canada.
We have been touched by the heartfelt messages of thanks from these smaller charities. Here’s a small sample.
Congrats to our nominating members, to the charities they supported and to all of us for making a difference. It’s WIN – WIN – WIN!
