People make our community what it is. Your Community Foundation is run by your neighbours, friends, and family. We are here to help you find ways to help your community... because that's just what we do.

It warms my heart to get messages from folks who served so diligently on your Communities Foundation.... I wanted to share this post sent to us by one of the past Board members www.facebook.com/100000908662084/posts/pfbid02e76kK6fjkfrbvU3YnLHkUiM1baUmjekavCCeeJuqByK2Mmg2RvN...
Last evening North Thompson Communities Foundation attended the Yellowhead Community Services AGM. Director (Treasurer) Cheryl Thomas (left) and Vice Chair Antoon Houben (right) took this opportunity to made a presentation to YCS Board Chair, Jack Keough (centre). This investment from the Government of British Columbia has empowered local Community Foundations to make decisions affecting their communities. This award from the Community Prosperity Fund, with its emphasis on poverty reduction and social inclusion, will be used to support the many programs of YCS with their organizational needs and operational expenses.
