Attending the 2022 Smart & Caring Community Grants Reception by Community Foundation of the North Okanagan (CFNO) was inspiring! 35 projects will be receiving over $300,000 in grants thanks to 46 donors!
It was exciting to see many 'friends' of Glohaven attending the event to support the recipients, and as recipients themselves! Congratulations to: HOPE Outreach/ Jewels of HOPE, CRIS Adaptive Adventures, Historic O'Keefe Ranch & Interior Heritage Society, Caetani Cultural Centre, Caravan Farm Theatre and all of the rest of the recipients: https://cfno.org/grants/recent-grants
And, a special congratulations to the CFNO Team, especially Leanne Hammond (who was Angela Case’s (CSM) talented former piano teacher when she was 8 & 9 years old)! It was lovely to see her in person again, after re-connecting this past September through email and phone.
Leanne was helpful and resourceful when Glohaven started our fundraising platform through the Globox™ tourism gift box. We've been thrilled to contribute to our commUNITY approx. $37,000 in funds for schools and wildfire relief, while also directly supporting tourism-based businesses in our commUNITY by purchasing approx. $10,000 in products and experiences for 3 raffles and 1 silent auction.
On the radar for Glohaven, we are further developing the social enterprise side of our business in a way we can scale sustainably, so it was wonderful to bump shoulders at the event with Jude Brunt from Purppl who has been assisting Angela with a grant application!
It's a brighter future for our entire commUNITY because of CFNO… because so many individuals strive to make it a better place in their capacities!
If you'd like to contribute, visit: https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/18541 and use the FUND dropdown list to support any fund at CFNO. Whether it's a small one-time donation, monthly support, or creating an endowment fund, every dollar is appreciated!
