Red Deer & District Community Foundation

Community member, catalyst, and resource for philanthropy in Central Alberta. Central Alberta is rich in its wealth of caring volunteer and charitable organizations. Yet, as a member of this voluntary sector, the Community Foundation plays a truly unique role – as a catalyst for community action and a resource for philanthropy. The Community Foundation works in co- operation with individuals and other organizations, bringing people together to address issues and opportunities for community improvement. Through its endowment fund program, the Community Foundation offers generous citizens a means of permanently providing for their community and playing a role in shaping its future. This pooling and investment of charitable gifts from many people thus generates revenue for the benefit of our community forever. The Community Foundation’s resources are allocated with vision and care to encourage the very best in a whole range of local charitable activities in arts and culture, health and human services, recreation, sport, education and the environment. For those who want to give back to their community, something that will live on forever and continue to make a difference, the Community Foundation is the answer.
