Well, we finally did it. We held our Public Update and Project grant event. The last time we held this event was 1,134 days ago!

Thank you to those that came out to talk and listen about community. The event provides an opportunity for the Community Foundation and our grant recipients to showcase and talk about what we do in the community. And an opportunity for those in attendance to learn about, ask questions and discuss what is being done. If you haven't been to one of these events, you really should. Keep an eye out for our announcement in our newsletter in the new year.

12 Grants worth $17,725. The work accomplished by our grants recipients - Priceless

We gave out 11 Project Grants totalling $15,725. We also gave out a grant from the Elma and David Jack Youth Recreation Fund for $1,500 for a total granting of $17,225. Seven funds participated in the granting. We are grateful to the donors of those funds.

We want to congratulate and thank all the grant recipients for the valuable work they accomplish in our community. The 12 grants mean these organizations are working hard on 12 projects to better our community.

A key message at the event was that a Community Foundation is at its best when it thoroughly understands the needs of our community, organizations, and individuals. Many reading this newsletter are involved with organizations, have lived experience or have subject expertise on matters important to understanding our community.

Would you help us better understand our community and share your knowledge with us? Let's grab a coffee or go for a "walk and talk" on a local trail or street route. You can contact me directly at raymond@cwcfoundation.ca.
