There are so many good things happening in and around Innisfil. We want to keep you connected, which is why we put together this community round-up sharing the latest from Innisfil Community Foundation (ICF), updates from our grantees, and news from across our community.
The latest from ICF
- Our Board of Directors presented a 2020 Impact Report at the Town of Innisfil’s Council meeting this week. (See the video on YouTube – our part starts about 8 minutes in.) We were grateful for the opportunity to highlight some of the charities we have supported, while thanking our partners at the Town of Innisfil and the Ontario Lottery & Gaming Corporation for their continued support and generosity. When we prepared to launch ICF this year, little did we know that our first year in operation would be during a global pandemic! We’re grateful to Town Council for establishing ICF so that we are here to support our community through COVID-19. We’re proud to share that we made close to $180,000 in grants to charities serving our community this year. Stay tuned for more granting announcements as we find even more ways to support Innisfil in 2021.
