The ICF supports all aspects of life in the RMs of Rockwood, Rosser and Woodlands and the Towns of Stonewall and Teulon, making grants to a wide variety of worthy causes – from daycares to seniors’ programs, scholarships to school improvements, community centers to heritage sites. We help children, athletes, seniors, artists, students and more!
Our Community Grants are possible thanks to generous gifts from local donors such as yourself. Community foundations pool and endow (permanently invest) all gifts and the income earned supports a variety of projects within the foundation’s catchment area. The original endowed contributions are never spent, ensuring a legacy for donors and a permanent source of support for the community. No matter the size of your gift, your contribution will improve life here for generations to come. All donations are welcome, and those over $20 will receive a tax receipt.
Thank you for your anticipated support!
