This weekly round-up shares the latest from Innisfil Community Foundation (ICF), updates from our grantees, and news from across our community.
The latest from ICF
- ICYMI, earlier this week we released an article about a potential Unclaimed Properties Initiative which could provide up to $10 million annually for communities in Ontario. With unprecedented need due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s important to think for new and innovative ways to find the funds that will help support our community.
Grantee Updates
- Honour a woman who has impacted your life with a Mother’s Day e-card from RVH Foundation. E-cards are $5 each, in addition to your donation of choice, which will be matched up to $10,000 by community-minded donors, Randy and Bryn Styles. All proceeds will help RVH purchase new mammography imaging equipment.
- Shine Through the Rain Foundation has partnered with Kits for a Cause to create customized care kits designed to support those who are affected by life threatening illness.
Community News
