Kimberley and District Community Foundation seeks ‘friends’

In the next couple of weeks, members of the Kimberley & District Community Foundation will be engaging in a campaign to encourage community members to become ‘Friends of the Foundation’. The Foundation is a significant provider of grants to charitable community organizations and sporting groups. These groups utilize grants from the Foundation to fund new initiatives, to continue existing projects, and in some cases to merely maintain their existence.

In the next couple of weeks, members of the Kimberley & District Community Foundation will be engaging in a campaign to encourage community members to become ‘Friends of the Foundation’. The Foundation is a significant provider of grants to charitable community organizations and sporting groups. These groups utilize grants from the Foundation to fund new initiatives, to continue existing projects, and in some cases to merely maintain their existence. Last year, the Foundation distributed over $30,000 in grants to the community.

‘Friends of the Foundation’ is an opportunity for individuals to become involved in the Foundation by donating $100 which will directly assist with operating funds and increasing current granting funds. Every ‘Friend’ will receive a income tax deduction, a copy of the Foundation annual report, and will be invited to annual Grant presentations.

If you appreciate the many opportunities Kimberley has to offer and would like to see them flourish and increase, become a “Friend of the Foundation’. You will be directly involved in ensuring our community remains a good place to be.

Foundation members will be making selective phone calls to encourage community members to join the Foundation as a ‘Friend’. If you do not receive a call and would like to become a ‘Friend’ you can go on-line to our website at kimberleyfoundation.ca to get information on how to make this donation.
