How can one donation support the community year after year?

That’s the idea behind an endowment.

Donations to an endowed fund are invested rather than spent all at once. Each year, a portion of the income earned is used to provide grants, while the fund itself remains invested for the future.

Some endowed funds support the community broadly. Others support a particular cause, scholarship, organization or geographic area.

Endowments don’t grow through large gifts alone. Donations of all sizes can be added to a fund, invested together and turned into lasting support for the community.

“Everyone deserves to play. Everyone.”

That was the goal behind the Deer Island Community School Playground Project.

With support from its Home and School Association, local partners, funders and the wider community, the school has been working to transform its aging playground into a safe, welcoming space for people of all ages and abilities.

An FCF Community Grant contributed to the purchase of safe swings for babies and toddlers, an adaptive swing that can also accommodate older youth and adults with disabilities, and an adaptive spinner chair selected by the students.

The school says these additions have helped the playground become a true community space where more people can play safely and comfortably.

We are glad to have played a small part in a much larger community effort to make play more inclusive on Deer Island.

Ever wondered what a community foundation actually does?

Think of us as part matchmaker, part caretaker and part community piggy bank.

We:
• connect donors with causes they care about
• look after charitable funds created by individuals, families and organizations
• invest endowed gifts so they can provide funding year after year
• award grants to local organizations doing the hands-on work in education, health, food security, recreation, inclusion, the environment, arts, heritage and more
• provide charitable tax receipts for eligible donations

While many charities focus on one particular cause, a community foundation can provide financial support for all kinds of needs and opportunities across the region it serves.

Local generosity goes in. Community support comes out. And through endowed funds, that cycle can continue for generations.

Good food can make a meaningful difference. 🍎

After losing both their location and food inventory to a fire earlier this year, the St. George and Area Food Bank continued finding ways to provide nutritious food to local families. With support from a Fundy Community Foundation Community Grant, their ProProtein project provided extra protein, including meat and eggs, to more than 110 families each month for three months.

Working with local partners to stretch resources even further, the Food Bank is helping families put more sustaining food on the table during a time of rising grocery costs.

We’re glad to play a small part in helping this important work continue.

Did you know? 🏒

For more than 20 years, the Charlotte County Sports for Kids Fund has been helping local youth access opportunities to participate in sports and recreation.

Established in 2003, the Fund was created with a simple idea: every child should have the opportunity to participate. For some families, costs like registration fees, equipment and travel can make that difficult. The Charlotte County Sports for Kids Fund helps make those costs more manageable for youth ages 5–18 throughout Charlotte County.

Together with the Bob Flewelling Sports for Kids Fund and Mike Kohler Sports for Kids Fund, it continues a long tradition of helping local kids stay active, try something new and experience the many benefits of sport and recreation.

This summer was measured in smiles! 😊

With support from a FCF Community Grant, the Dragonfly Centre for Autism helped campers make the most of summer with activities and adventures throughout our region, including a new excursion to Legends Fun Factory on Deer Island.

From exploring new places to spending time with friends and trying new experiences, these outings help campers build connections, develop social skills, and feel included in their community.

The Dragonfly team summed up the summer best: “The summer is measured in smiles and there were certainly lots of them this past summer.”

We’re proud to support the Dragonfly Centre for Autism and the wonderful work they do.☀️

With support from Fundy Community Foundation, Hope Air provided 282 travel arrangements for Southwestern New Brunswick patients in financial need, including 92 flights, 82 nights of accommodation, 40 meals, and 68 ride vouchers. These arrangements helped patients and caregivers reach appointments for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care.

One of those patients was Seif, a 14-year-old newcomer to Canada who travelled to Toronto for cochlear implant surgery. By arranging flights and accommodations for his family, Hope Air helped ease the stress of last-minute travel so they could focus on supporting Seif through this life-changing moment. FCF was pleased to support Hope Air through a Community Grant.
