we build community vitality in three ways
DONOR ENGAGEMENT
We work with donors and help them plan and realize their philanthropic goals, matching their interests and concerns with community needs and organizations. We help them find innovative and responsible ways to give their investments lasting impact. We build endowments and create legacies.
GRANTING
We grant funds to the widest possible range of organizations and initiatives. Whether it is sending hundreds of children to camp, planting trees, awarding youth for academic achievement, or supporting a program for young parents, The Guelph Community Foundation is here to help good people do great things in our community.
LEADERSHIP
We bring people together from all parts of our community to stimulate new ideas, build participation, and strengthen community philanthropy. We identify long-term needs and opportunities.
