𝐀𝐧 𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠.
Thank you to everyone who joined us as we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Greater Saint John Community Foundation last Wednesday evening.
Together, we reflected on five decades of generosity, community leadership, and the incredible people who have shaped our Foundation's story. We celebrated the donors and fundholders whose vision has created lasting impact, the volunteers and Board members whose dedication has guided our work, and the community organizations that continue to strengthen Greater Saint John every day.
The evening was filled with memorable moments…from the inspiring performance by the Kehkimin Drum Group, to the unveiling of our collaborative community mural created by students from St. John the Baptist / King Edward School, a heartfelt tribute to leaders past and present (Jane Barry and Kelly Evans), and a beautiful closing performance of Safe Home by our own Tracy Friars and friends.
As we looked back on more than $26 million invested in our community over the past 50 years, we were reminded that our story has never been about numbers alone. It's about people, generosity, believing in one another, and investing in a stronger future.
To everyone who attended, volunteered, performed, spoke, partnered with us, or helped make this celebration possible, thank you. This evening was a celebration of everything our community can accomplish when people come together with a shared purpose.
