CFKR participating in the Community Prosperity Fund — new information on the Vancouver Foundation website

May 23, 2024 (Elkford, Sparwood, Fernie, and Cranbrook): We’re thrilled to share that CFKR is one of over 50 local community foundations participating in the Community Prosperity Fund (CPF), in partnership with the Vancouver Foundation, Community Foundations of Canada, and the Government of British Columbia.

Thanks to a $25 million investment from the Government of B.C., the Community Prosperity Fund will work to advance poverty reduction and social inclusion by providing funding for the ongoing work of organizations across B.C., with funding decisions made by local community foundations.
 
Several key resources are now available on the Vancouver Foundation website, including the program timeline, Applicant Guide, PDF Application Form (for preparation only, in advance of the online portal), and map of participating community foundations.
 
The online application portal will open this Friday, May 24th, and close June 24, 2024.
