The 17-member volunteer board for the Comox Valley Community Foundation is comprised of a diverse representation of professions and backgrounds.

In January the CVCF awarded $51,283 in community grants. These grants are made possible by generous donors who have contributed to the foundation’s community grants program.

Donations made to the foundation are tax-exempt, and are used to support local charitable organizations. Since 1998, the foundation has disbursed over $1,000,000 in grants.

One of the goals of the foundation is to get the word out to the community about it, how it operates, how the funds are managed and distributed and how to make a donation.

If you are interested in knowing more, contact president Lorne Harder lharder@viic.ca. If you are part of an organization and would be interested in a presentation about CVCF, contact Keith Tatton at keith@cumberlandreadymix.ca.
